how does your orbit go
with shiny propels and glimmering pastels
and starry cascades all aglowbut a retrograde orbit you demand
leaving all others
at your command!

You have a beautiful blog. So colorful. I think I could be ever so depressed and your blog would bring me out of it. Please visit me again. I am not usualy so disjointed ,
lucy, girl, you don't ever ever have to apologize for being ANYthing at all that you "think" you are - or - that you MAY BE - you are YOU - disjointed unjointed morejointed - or whatever -
:)
anyway, thank you SO MUCH for your sweet words and for taking the time and energy to come this way and especially for leaving a note -
so what's going on over at your place today? thunderstorms all day here! the skies of late look much like winter - but then there is the heat!
please do come again soon! jenean
thanks so much for coming by, stacey, and for inviting me over to your place from whence i've just returned, i might add - thought i would "follow" along at your site and should you be so inclined please feel free to do the same at any one or more of mine - it's always wonderful to meet kindred spirits -

Ah yes, isn't WASP-17 exciting in its retrograde orbit around its host star? This is caused more than likely by a cosmic collision of some kind. Yet not uncommon. Our own Luna was created when earth collided with a Mars-sized object. As we speak, Spitzer found 2 planets colliding around a distant young star. And in our own sol-system we have moons in retrograde orbits (as Titan) It's just so exciting to be afforded a sight of this happening in places so distant!
hi kathy - so glad you've come by - and yes - having access to such wonderful sights is absolutely breathtaking - mindboggling - i've always been fascinated with astronomy - thought i one time that's what i would pursue professionally - anyway, i still marvel at all the wonders of this universe - and all the others - thanks so much for coming by and please come again soon - jenean
cathy - please forgive my error with your name above - i am so sorry! one's name should not be mistaken by others so please forgive! :)
