Michael over at Slacker Astronomy hosts the 60th Carnival of Space, which had a variety of entries ranging from humanity traveling towards Alpha Centauri to why the Moon "grows larger/smaller" to even how persistance can pay off when confronting NASA.
A few interesting posts regarding our solar system (or technology that will help get us there) caught this author's eye, which included:
- Stuart Atkinson of Cumbrian Sky takes us on an emotional journey throughout our solar system and beyond.
- Todd from Catholic Sensibility has some close up shots of Saturn's icy moons, which shows the worlds to be "a bit rougher" than they appear from afar.
- Brian Wang of Next Big Future informs everyone about the upcoming Space Elevator competition, as well as the $2 million purse prize NASA is offering (note: will anyone win it this year?)
Feel free to read the rest of the articles over at Slacker Astronomy, and if you desire to see your thoughts included in the next round, feel free to visit Universe Today for more details.

You can either visit the stars or watch them from afar.
But if you choose the former, you'll definitely get a better view.
