So am I. Hard-core, in fact. If you're serious, what's your favorite? Step, Smart, Secular, Rational, or Mixed Drinks?

Just curious. I myself don't have any favorites in that list.

Have a good one,

Mortal WOmbat. Using a swear word with some of the letters *d out is against the rules. I would edit that if I were you.

Hi , I've been interested in all things in the Cosmos as long as I can remember (even before Cosmos first aired) often lurk in websites and forums covering it all, thought I would sign up on this one since it seemed full of many views and ideas.

Hello to you all!

I got here due to a google search about a song with some NASA transmissions in it.

Poking around now, and this seems like an interesting place. I live in the CAlifornia SF Bay area, right by the Berkeley Lawrence Hall of Science. Apparently they do some star gazing two Saturdays a month with a powerful telescope. See some of you there?

Welcome, pwrstick. Sorry, though, I'm on the wrong coast -- or should I say, the right coast?

I'm a long time listener to Astronomy Cast and just finally getting around to seeing what's up on this forum.
Actually, I am a frustrated Mars Phoenix fan, trying to get more information on what they are finding. It seems like there is just about no news except for the dribble of stuff from their website. Why so secretive?
I have a ton of questions so I am hoping there are some folks here with answers.

I am new here and I guess you can call me a geek since my interests are physics, geology, astronomy and chemistry.

Hi Lepton, welcome to BAUT. Do you know someone named quark, I think he's been hanging around here?
