great link, gyan!!! i like "mantle plumes." heh. sounds edible somehow.
sometimes i wonder why we're spending so much money to explore outerspace when innerspace still has a lot to reveal.
holy crap. that's mind-blowing. great link.
SideDish I don't think there's any reason why we have to explore one at the expense of the other. Exploration of any kind has tremendous benefits in knowledge and technical development. (I'm personally a astronomy fan and am still holding out hope to have a personal spaceship to fly around the universe and want us to go to Mars already, but that's just me.)
This is a good link. If you're watching, this ones definitely worth checking out.
I agree, especially if you need an antidote after watching The Core.
Best.band_name.ever.
