DC Tom Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Scientists using the Herschel telescope spotted something odd on the asteroid Ceres. I have no idea what "TEARS" is. Looks like an acronym I've never seen. Possibly they mean "water", since Herschel works in the far-infrared spectrum, which is a good bad for detecting water vapor, but I don't know why they'd capitalize it. "Excuse me, stewardess.

DC Tom Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Peyton Manning's new audible system for the Superbowl instead of "OMAHA!" Or Sherman's latest on-field rant. I'd actually pay to see him shout that to Erin Andrews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
