A depiction of our solar system from the Pioneer plaque. Designed and created by Carl and Linda Sagan, this and a few other images simply showing human knowledge of our solar system and universe was aboard the Pioneer 10 spacecraft; one of the first man made object to leave our solar system.  (I decided to give pluto love because the poor guy deserves a break. It’s not his fault he hasn’t been able to orbit the sun even once since his discovery!)

It’s almost the weekend. Thus, a cat as sushi.

Lost At E Minor:

[When] I came across this bizarre ad series by the Japanese company Tange and Nakimushi Peanuts, I was greatly disturbed. How could anyone even think of letting a cat rub its furry body all over their sushi? This is wrong on so many levels.
