This is awesome. Thanks for the link. I wonder how good the shields in Elite will have to be just to land on that world for more than a few minutes.

At least they won't have to worry about getting ripped off on their heating bills this winter.

I love that as smart as we get we still find things that completely baffle us and we can't explain. Great article, thanks for sharing.
