Chemistry and the Universe Chemistry, the study of the intricate dances and bondings of low-energy electrons to form the molecules that make up the world we live in, may seem far removed from the thermonuclear heat in the interiors of stars and the awesome power of supernovas. Yet, there is a fundamental connection between them. To illustrate this connection, the familiar periodic table of elements—found in virtually every chemistry class—has been adapted to show how astronomers see the chemical Universe. What leaps out of this table is that the simplest elements, hydrogen and helium, are far and away the most abundant.
By Babu G. Ranganathan NASA will do anything for money. Recently NASA claimed aliens exist and that there is now proof from a meteorite containing fossils of bacteria.

CMU Robotics Camp - (Build 20100722150226)

Thirty Bay Area high school students entering their senior year this fall will soon take part in a new robotics summer course. The unique program will be offered by Carnegie Mellon University at its west coast campus, in collaboration with NASA Ames Research Center and the National Hispanic University, San Jose, Calif. Students in the ‘Robotic Autonomy’ program will build, program and operate their personal vision-based, mobile robots as they learn about the electronics, mechanics and computer science of robotic systems. The college-level class will culminate with an autonomous robot contest in August. http://www.nasa.gov/centers/ames/news/releases/2002/02_73AR.html
If anyone went and did there homework... This WAS three months ago, but we know enough now to say that these bacteria probably do not substitute arsenic for phosphorous in their DNA. This wouldn't falsify evolution were it true, the article and topic has been blown out of proportion and both the proponents and opponents of evolution hear what they want to as usual.
