Carnival of Space #84

From space politics to space aliens, from conferences on Earth to avalanches on Mars, from local planets to exoplanets to the best of 2008, Carnival of Space #84 offers you 25 byte sized chunks of the universe to explore, hosted by Next Big Future. The video here is #5 in Bad Astronomy's post on the top 10 astronomy images of 2008 - the moon transiting Earth as captured by the Deep Impact/EPOXI spacecraft back in May. Amazing!
