Stardust (9/10)
Strangely wonderful and wonderfully strange, this surprising fantasy movie is a wonderful little movie going morsel of delight. While it might be a trifle unsteady at times, it is otherwise a fantastic fairy tale. Writing: Based on well-known graphic novelist Neil Gaiman’s novel, and produced …

Ponderings For 2007-07-27
Not a good week for the spaceflight community. Following hot on the heals of the news that somebody sabotaged an ISS computer module is the truly tragic news of a fatal accident at Burt Rutan’s Scaled Composites location, killing 3. And just to add insult …
