Monkeys vs Flying Squirrel!
Japanese macaques were filmed hanging out, doing whatever monkeys do - until a flying squirrel glided overhead. Then they went, well, bananas, screeching in alarm and pursuing the squirrel like it was a deadly enemy. Researchers speculate the monkeys mistook the squirrel for a predatory bird, but another theory is that the males used the occasion to show off to females how alert and brave they were. In other words, they acted...

Discovery of old ship means much to Canada
Canadian searchers have discovered the wreck of HMS Investigator, a three-masted 400-ton vessel which sank 155 years ago. It was the first ship to survive a transit of the Northwest Passage, even though that's not what it set out to do. The three-masted, 400-ton, 36-meter vessel is described as in very good condition, thanks to the cold Arctic waters. The ship's discovery, according to the government, reinforces Canada's territorial...

What's the worst dinosaur film ever made?
Gosh, there are so many possibilities. Here Smithsonian dino-blogger Brian Switek nominates the 1970s TV movie "The Last Dinosaur" in which idiocy is piled on impossibility. Who knew that a geologist was capable of referring to a mammal as a "ceratopsian," (it's a horned dinosaur - where did you get your degree, anyway?) or that T. rex had a foam-rubber skull that could make a giant rock bounce harmlessly aw...
New octopuses equipped for the cold
In 2009 came the news that all octopuses (not just specialized varieties like the deadly blue-ringed octopus) have venom. Now Bryan Fry, the University of Melbourne (Australia) specialist who made that discovery, reports that four new species of octopus from Antarctic waters sport a previously unknown adaptation. The enzymes in cephalopod venom lose their effectiveness at cold temperatures, but the new species employ poorly-understood...

Moss reproduces with air gun
A common species of moss uses a unique method of reproduction. As the sun shrinks its spore-containing pods, they shrink into am airtight tube shape. When the pressure inside gets too high, the lid blows off, and air comes out in a vortex ring (like a smoke ring) blasting spores upward into the wind at 144 km/h. Thant's not a misprint. The moss blows its spores into the air at Autobahn speed. It's hard to say moss is cool...but...

Launch vehicles that weren't
This site, invaluable to space historians, collects launch vehicles, especially reusable launch vehicles (RLVs), proposed from 1963 to 2001.

Planners who hope to build them in the future need to apply all the lessons learned (often expensively) in the pa...
Launch vehicle makers think they'll win either way
The President's proposed NASA overhaul, and the alternatives argued in Congress, tend to have one thing in common: they will lead to more types of Earth-to-orbit spacecraft that need rides. In the debate over what types of spacecraft to send where, the launch vehicle side can be overlooked. The only American players are Boeing, Lockheed Martin, and SpaceX. As this article outlines, they all think the future looks brig...
