We Remember the Moon!
The 35th Aniversary of the Apollo 11 landing on the moon passed without much fanfare. NASA did release some striking digital photos taken on the moon. Terrific panoramic view! Base10 doesn't have time at this moment to properly attribute this quote, but recalls that Arthur C. Clarke once said that he always knew he would see the first man walk on the moon in his lifetime. He also said, "I never dreamed I'd see the last one." As much as Base10 wishes there was a lunar tourist spot, he must admit, there's nothing there. It's a rock!

For a taste of recent exploration, there are some new images from Cassini.
Striking photos of the rings of Saturn. Links to follow.

UPDATE: Photo links for Apollo 11 are here. Photos from Cassini are here.
