The Hermitage: planetary science

The Hermits

Only two hermits remain. The ninth hermit has been joined by a tenth. They live on a small ranch in Central Texas with The Dogs of Hermits’ Rest. He does not hang out in bars anywhere near as much as when he was trying to be Li Po.

Other than family and music and song writing, his interests include writing. He has authored many technical tomes, several short stories, and a novel. He does have a day job or two, and he re-publishes some of his writings for those here.

Curiosity

This morning we have a new robot wandering around on Mars. More than 79 systems had to function in perfect harmony to accomplish this technological miracle.

I still hope we can one day bring back manned exploration.
