Greetings and salutations, science fans! Your ole' pal Brandon comin' atcha again with some juicy jabberwockies and tongue-twisted tidbits from the world of...SCIENCE!
A NASA probe in orbit around Mars captured some amazing pictures this week. The images from the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter show landslides in action, flowing down a mountainside near the Martian north pole. Check out the the images, plus a fascinating explanation, at the Science@NASA website.
The long-held stereotype is that girls excel in the arts, and boys are better in math and science -- and as far as we knew, it was because girls were more interested in artistic pursuits and boys liked numbers. Well, that myth is being put to the test in a new survey that shows girls do like math and science, even more so than language arts and history. Get more from MSNBC's LiveScience.
One last note about space: the Cassini orbiter around Saturn discovered what appears to be rings around Rhea, the planet's second-largest moon. If the evidence holds up, Rhea would be the first known moon to host a ring system.
