		<description><![CDATA[TweetIn the name of Science, we destroy.  In this case, the $79 million LCROSS spacecraft NASA sent crashing into the Cabeus crater at the south pole of the Moon on October 9th, 2009.  Now the reports are in and what did we find?  Water, and lots of it &#8230; compared to, you know, what you&#8217;d [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[TweetGliese 581 is a star, a red dwarf star to be specific, that&#8217;s about 20 light years from Earth.  Slap a &#8216;G&#8217; on the end of that name and you have the sixth observed exoplanet in that solar system (gliesean system?).  That&#8217;s cool, exoplanets are still fun but we&#8217;ve found over 400 of them now [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[TweetThough it may be hard to believe, Neptune, once again the farthest planet from the Sun (in our solar system) thanks to Pluto&#8217;s demotion, completes it&#8217;s first orbit around the Sun in two day&#8217;s time.  What that means is that on August 20th, Neptune will have traveled fully around the Sun for the first time [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[TweetFirst of all Dean Kamen, sorry, but seriously the Segway is retarded.  Moving on, the &#8220;Luke&#8221; arm created by Kamen for DARPA is amazing, and not just because he&#8217;s nerdy enough to name the thing after our favorite fictional amputee and I think Stephen Colbert would agree. The robotic arm has been in development for [...]]]></description>
