Look up! There are cool things going on in space.
First of all, the transit of Venus. Venus will pass between Earth and the Sun, like a micro-eclipse; it last happened in 1882. Be sure to stare directly at the sun. You'll be seeing the transit of Venus for days!
Second, Cassini is getting close to Saturn. Cassini is huge. It makes the Voyagers look like mosquitos. It's also staying there to observe for years, whereas all the other probes have just flown by (IIRC). I love the probe that's landing on Titan. It's either hitting the ground or splashing down in an ocean of methane and ethane, they don't know which.
