A couple of items -

There is a new upper limit to the mass of the neutrino - I find this intriguing because there are significant ramifications in the area of string theory as well as cosmology.

The gist of the article is that the neutrino is pretty damned light. But the indications are that it does have some mass.

Secondly, has anyone had a chance to check this out? It looks like GoogleEarth, but for the universe. There are also 3D "tours" of the planets and some of the major satellites in the solar system. I can't check it out from here, so I have to wait 'til I get home.
