Some tasty space links to go with today's recap!
i. Hypothetical methane-based life on Titan. There are plenty of non-biological explanations for everything that goes down on that moon, but I love that life is one of the wacky options.
ii. Hubble spots a planet-eating star. OM NOM NOM. The universe is so cool.
iii. Stellar Geography in the Babylon 5 Galaxy, which is less scientific but probably still relevant to our interests. Someone with much more attention to detail than JMS drew this up, so there are the usual mildly peeved fannish notes about inconsistency, but it's still awesome. (My personal favourite part is that, from the arbitrary viewpoint from which the galaxy is mapped, one would basically be traveling West to get beyond the galactic rim. :D)
( Mind War & The War Prayer: In which Bester turns up for the first time and we are likened unto ants, aliens are attacked by terrorists, and Londo's shoes are too tight; talk of the telepath arc, the seasons-long breakdown of mystery, the politics of being Centauri, and the healing power of love. )
