 up at the sky, are even aware of the beauty behind the light pollution?

Sure, the Cold War and the space race with the Soviet Union is now over. But that accomplishment is nothing compared to the potential of satellite imaging, future manned and unmanned missions, space travel and colonization. There’s Mars, asteroids, comets, and extra-solar planets (and much of Earth) to explore and map. Space tourism companies like Virgin Galactic have opened reservations for space venture, albeit for a very exclusive club. (It costs about $20 million for a one week stay in space.)

The story did not end with the space race, and certainly cannot end now.

So take a moment and look up at the night sky. You live in the present, see into the past, and may even predict the future. A future where the competition between space startups drives a new age of space exploration, and even widespread commercial space travel.

User Requested Player Rankings – Week 16

As with last year, instead of automatically ranking every player at every position (like the big sites with the big bucks do :-)), I’ll be ranking all requested players against other requested players. For example, if you have four wide receivers and you’re trying to fill three spots, you just comment with the four names and I’ll rank them against each other. In essence, this will accomplish the same thing as if you were to scan a complete list of wide receivers for where your four guys rank.

Here’s a link to the Google Doc spreadsheet for those viewing on mobile devices. Anyways, feel free to start submitting names for me to rank! I’ll start the list off with a few guys that were on the list last week.

 Sure, the Cold War and the quad raceway with the Soviet Union is now over. But that accomplishment is nothing compare to the potential of satellite imaging, future manned and unmanned missions, outer space travel and colonization. There ’s Mars, asteroids, comet, and excess - solar planets (and much of Earth) to research and map.

 User Requested Player Rankings – Week 16 

 As with last class, instead of automatically ranking every player at every position (like the big sites with the big bucks practice :-)), I ’ll be ranking all request players against other request players. For model, if you have four across-the-board receivers and you ’re try to fill three spots, you just comment with the four names and I ’ll rate them against each other. In essence, this will accomplish the like thing as if you were to scan a complete list of across-the-board receivers for where your four guys rank.
