Alastair Mayer’s T-Space Blog

NASA announced today that observations from the Spitzer Space Telescope lead them to believe that the star Epsilon Eridani (about ten light years from Earth, and currently the closest star to ours known to have planets) has two asteroid belts. There’s a somewhat expanded story at Science Daily.

This has no immediate effect on my T-Space stories (dodged a bullet there, I was just commenting yesterday about how astronomical discoveries sometimes render stories obsolete) but does give me a few ideas, and has stimulated me to start adding to the T-Space pages. The first is of course on Epsilon Eridani.

I’m back from MileHiCon. It was a lot of fun, I met a lot of old friends and made some new ones, and was on several panels. I’m exhausted.

However, I did want to point out the new T-Space page that’s up, giving a bit more detail of the background of the T-Space series of stories (the Jason Curtis stories, The Venaticorum Archive, and others in progress). As time goes on I’ll be adding more here, both for those of you who are interested and to help keep my notes on the place organized 😉 I don’t have comments turned on for that page yet, but feel to leave comments to this post.
