    hehe my teacher taught us a very ez way to memorize the planets in the order closest to the sun. Jus rmbr "My Very Eager Mother Just Served Us Nine Pickles". The 1st letter of each word stands for each of the 9 planets. buh since pluto is no longer a planet I don't know what the N would stand for now :p

    If that is true then that other Universe is made of Anti-Matter... (Anti-Universe)

    Anti-Matter is Anti-Universe

    Since we're on the subject of astronomy.. something I found interesting:

    Japanese physicists plan to create new universe

    heres the full article: http://www.casavaria.com/sentido/science/2006/06-0802-new-universe.htm

    This article suggests that universes can be created and makes me think "what if we're not just someguy's science project?" Time would pass much quicker in a miniuniverse than the larger one of course. And I don't really mean those guys are mad scientists. They're cool and no, they won't destroy our universe with their experiment even though our universe will inevitably be destroyed one day, but that day won't come for another few hundred trillion or octillion years though.

    Because that would make classification simplier. Astronomist nowaday discovers more object in space. And if Pluto is considered as a planet, then some of those object could be count as a planet also. By striping Pluto the staus of planet, then it would make it simplier and keep the number of planet in the Solar system fairly low.

    But yeah it is sad as Pluto is one of my favorite planet for several reason!! After all, it is the one "planet" where the moon is bigger then itself! Not to mention that sometime, Pluto become the 8th planet of Sol and Neptune the 9th! ;)


    I sure miss those astrology class now ; ;
