About the cool photo in the banner:
The picture in the banner of this blog is from the Hubble Telescope. A dust ring, seen in red, surrounds the star Fomalhaut, which is located at the center of the image (although not visible). This pic and others like it are among the first that astronomers have ever taken of planets revolving around other stars. It’s a remarkable breakthrough in science, which you can read about in this article that appeared in the NY Times online.
