NASA is preparing a submarine to explore Titan.
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/techn...ticle31640066/ Doesn't sound like they've built anything yet. It's a conceptual design for a vehicle that will navigate a hydrocarbon sea. https://www.nasa.gov/content/titan-s.../#.V8fYWvkrJhE |

Thank heavens. It would be terrible if they were smoking their teenaged kids.

'Seven-foot Yowie' seen near Toowoomba
A Yowie is the Australian version of a Yeti or Sasquatch. "It was probably around seven foot tall, it had a head like a gorilla and long arms, I couldn't see it from the waist down because it was walking through the long grass," she said. ... The Yowie Hunters run the Australian Yowie Research website and say they have recorded more than 10 sightings in Queensland in the past five years. Yowie Hunters website And the audio report on YouTube, with a different sighting posted today.
