Congrats to Orbital for what looks to be a clean launch! It sounds like
Cygnus made it to orbit and is operating properly. Here's hoping that
the rest of this ISS resupply (demonstration) mission goes well.


So far so good, with some good pictures of Cygnus' departure.

There's nothing inherently wrong with Big Data. What matters, as it
does for Arnold Lund in California or Richard Rothman in Baltimore, are
the questions -- old and new, good and bad -- this newest tool lets us
ask. (R. Lerhman, CSMonitor.com)

Killing a mouse was hardly a Nobel Prize-worthy exercise, and Lawrence
went apopleptic when he learned a lousy rodent had peed away all his
precious heavy water.
