A Star with a Comet's Tail 08.15.2007 Science@NASA  August 15, 2007: Astronomers using a NASA space telescope, the Galaxy Evolution Explorer, have spotted an amazingly long comet-like tail behind a star streaking through space. The star, named Mira after the Latin word for "wonderful," has been a favorite of astronomers for about 400 years, yet this is the first time the tail has been seen. http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2007/15aug_mira.htm?list213022

How big is our universe? Harvard University has a nifty web site to give you a tour at http://www.cfa.harvard.edu/seuforum/howfar/"This website shows how generations of explorers have taken us, step by step, ever further into the vast expanse of the universe. It is a journey of discovery that has only just begun."
