Why do these articles seem so amazing* to me tonight?!
NASA discovers 715 new planets (including an earth-sized one in a habitable zone)
Astronomers find first asteroid with rings
Dwarf planet discovered at solar system's edge
And regarding tonight's meteor shower:
Meteor shower approaches in time for holiday weekend - not just any meteor shower, but a *new* one!
*I know! It's because I got to see quarter-sized hail thunking down out of the sky, just as I was ready to leave work! It was making loud ka-plunking noises on the overhead skylight/ceiling! And then when that ended, there was awesome mist swirling on the pond! And then the sun was so beautifully orange amidst the dark cloudy sky! And then after getting home, there was a little bit more hail, and one of those stationary cloud lightning light shows in the sky!
