My mind is on the crew of the Atlantis today. They are nine days into an eleven day mission, with plans to return home to planet Earth this Friday morning. Mike Massimino is still tweeting from space after successfully repairing the Hubble Telescope. If you've never viewed the images from Hubble, you're missing out.
Which got me thinking about Hubble. A funny-ish word. I Wiki-ied Edwin Hubble (kids and journalists, don't try that at home) and was delighted to discover he was born in the Show-Me-State (in good company with Mark Twain, Harry Truman, and Walter Cronkite). NASA tells a nice story of Hubble the Astronomer.
Sex and the City has a few Hubbell moments. Which are either a knock off or an homage to this scene with Katie and Hubbell, depending on your perspective. (Pardon the homophone).
And since it's Wednesday, have a laugh at these awkward family photos. One of them might be yours.
