We’ll admit it. We’ve become addicted to MSNBC’s Month in Space feature, where each month they post a slideshow of the coolest new space-related photographs. At first we thought it was pretty neat, then we went back a second time… and now it is required viewing, which is why we link to it from Club Galahad each and every month.
Here’s the link to the November slideshow. Among the highlights: freaky carbon dioxide patterns on Mars’ surface; breathtaking Antarctic sea ice; the Leonid meteor as seen from South Africa; the colorful Crab Nebula (pictured at left); and of course, several cool shots of the space shuttle Atlantis and her crew.
Don’t just look at the pictures. Instead, make it into a game. As you flip through the slideshow, count the number of times you catch yourself saying, ‘Wow.’
