We landed on Mars! Seriously, I'm not even bothering with links, because the info is EVERYWHERE. Rejoice, for our space program seems to be functioning again! Yay!

And in a bizarre hit of solidarity from the internet, Bobek Ferdowsi, one of the mission techs on the Curiosity project, became a meme no less than an hour after the first livestream of ( Read more... )

Quick little thing, the eve of that other holiday--this remained one of my favorite destinations for holiday music in 2009, and they've got their 2010 songs up now as well!
