POPSA touchy feely invisible cosmos The Universe in Braille. Sounds unlikely, but the point is made that the images we see that have been taken by the Hubble, Chandra X-Ray, and Spitzer infra Red Telescopes, are graphis representations of wavelengths outside the visible spectrum. There is no reason a blind person would have any less accurate picture of the Universe than a sighted person. Perhaps their view can be clearer, because they are not made blind by preconception.

POPSOUTPOST EARTH
The Hubble space telescope has revealed images of our Universe that until recently would have been incomprehensible. The vastness of the universe with its billions of galaxies overwhelms the mind and humbles the human sprit. A new armada of advanced telescopes scans the Heavens for Planets. These new juggernauts have already discovered dozens of Planets circling their stars in a timeless dance millions of light years away. There is little doubt among astronomers that hundreds if not thousands of planets will be eventually documented. A number of new deep space telescopes are in the works and scheduled for deployment in the next few years. One already emerging theme is that Earth like planets are rare, while gaseous giants and solid rock planets are the norm. Even though this developing search is in its earliest stages, finding Earth like planets will be equivalent to finding Gold or Diamonds here on our own globe. Our planet would be seen as a great treasure to anyone looking back

POPS DebraFord123'sGoogle Pages- first 8 Pages Just launched
I spent the last 3 -5 hours building a new website and I just launched 38 pages. There are online games, weather, links to videos, over 200 blog titles - some partial some full entries, translation tools, money conversions, a hubble tracker, Nasa image of the day, and of course links to some of my other sites. This may have been one of my most productive web building sessions yet. It's a combination of the Great features in Google Labs and the fact that I finally know what I'm doing. All in all I am pleased and I expect this site to grow. Who knows what I could have done in a full eight hours. But, I have to split my time these days. Other duties call.Later this month I will put in a few more sessions on this site in particular.I know it was after two when I started but, I'm not exactly sure how long it took. What I can say is that people who talk bad about Google don't seem to realize that they are spending their money to make all of this stuff easier for us.
