That was a great episode. I sometimes wish I had a shack on an asteroid.

Asteroids are great places to have one.

I remember a good collection of sword and planet books by various authors on paizo,com, although the site is currently undergoing some maintenance.

REH's planet adventure Almuric. Read this years ago, loved it, and I remember there being some speculation that parts of the compilation were written by others, the latter part of the book. Esau Cairn facing off against a winged Yaga.

- - That big strong dangerous grumpy bastard Conan used to get plenty of ordinary jobs in between the crazy adventures and bloodbaths. He needed loads more money to pay for his wild gambling and wild whores. Howard refused to write about these real 'boring' facts, and eventually chucked his typewriter out the window when conan put down his blood-soaked sword and began writing flowery love poetry about Cimmerian sheep. --- ?? [ from tv series episode 59 'Conan the Stevedore' ]

Some time back I watched Flashpoint. Thinking over it, maybe I like the Thomas Wayne Batman better than the original Bruce Wayne version. Simpler, tougher, more gritty and direct. I can easily see a movie set in the alternate time line with the badass Thomas Wayne Batman.

The evidence for the existence of other planets beyond Neptune in our solar system are incomplete, mostly based on behaviour observed in objects that seems to indicate the gravitational effects of planetary orbit, hence speculation about a ninth and also a tenth planet. An artists impression of Planet 10

An artists impression of Planet 10 Pretty neat stuff, actually. Looks a bit like Pluto, I think. I enjoy reading about this kind of thing, and I periodically check to see what the New Horizons space probe is doing out there in the Kuiper belt.

I am a Pluto fan, kind of disappointed when it was relegated to dwarf planet status. Not too surprised though when you take into account it is even smaller than our moon. Compare the other known dwarf planets with Earth and the moon. Damn, I has such hopes for Pluto as the locale for future planetary adventures.

Yeah, it's not too surprising when you really look at the reasons for Pluto being a dwarf planet. At least it's still some kind of planet. Speaking of moons, I have hopes for future planetary adventures on moons such as Europa (where there's a possibility of life) or Titan.

Well, Titan is larger than our moon, and even Europa, which is only a little smaller than the moon, is still larger than Pluto.

Wow, Titan and Ganymede are even bigger than Mercury, according to that pic. Were they not orbiting Saturn and Jupiter, they could easily be planets of their own.

Callisto is almost the same size as Mercury, although only about a third of its mass. The planet Mars is actually smaller than I thought it was. Venus, the closest planet to us, has many similarities to Earth. It is a terrestrial planet, it orbits within the Sun’s habitable zone, and it has an atmosphere that is believed to have once been like Earth’s. Of all the planets in our solar system it is also closest in size.
