A closer look at NASA's electric lunar rover from Engadget by Laura June
We were all decently hyped to see NASA's lunar rover rolling down the street in the Inaugural Parade in Washington D.C. the other day (remember that?), but now, thanks to a really awesome new NASA buddy of ours, we've gotten a much closer look at it. Hit the gallery after the break for a bunch of views, and -- if you were wondering -- the rover's running Windows XP.

Flight Level 390 from flightlevel390.blogspot.com
Question for captain (with a little c) Dave: What would be, in your mind, the description of the perfect airline pilot?
Answer: Oh, I guess a guy about 57 years old with silver hair, an Air Force Academy graduate, and a former F-4 Phantom pilot.
I am going to exhale now. I think the Captain (with a capital C) of this A320 is going to be OK, in other words, no pilot error. I am sure the Feds will find a switch or button that was activated out of sequence during the scary and short ride down to the water, but for the most part, it appears both engines lost power because of waterfowl ingestion at an altitude to low for a successful re-start attempt. The question about whether he will be charged for violating the rights of the geese is yet to be decided. It would not surprise me, though.
