The Uncertain Heavens: Christiaan Huygens’ Ideas of Extraterrestrial Life

quote [ During the 17th century, as knowledge of the Universe and its contents increased, so did speculation about life on other planets. One such source, as Hugh Aldersey-Williams explores, was Dutch astronomer, mathematician, and inventor Christiaan Huygens, whose earlier work on probability paved the way for his very modern evaluation of what alien life might look like. ]

I'm digging the people living in Pumpkins on the Moon.
I am also reminded of NASA's announcement about the Moon coming Monday and how at best (and it's still neat.) if could be about Helium 3 or something cool
- but won't be as cool as abandoned Nazi moonbases.

When Nelson asks Mrs Krabappel why she doesn't live with Mr Krabappel, I would have sworn that she answered "Because Mr Krabappel found himself a fluffier bunny." In fact she says "Because Mr. Krabappel chased something fluffy down a rabbit hole."

So not only are the CIA testing their time replacement technology on me, but their writers aren't as good as the original ones. As if the Simpsons Season 3 writers would really have made a tired rabbit hole/vagina reference. It's a blatant glitch in the Matrix.
