NASA Image of the Day
Bursting at the Seams
Dramatic plumes, both large and small, spray water ice out from many locations along the famed 'tiger stripes' near the south pole of Saturn's moon Enceladus. The tiger stripes are fissures that spray icy particles, water vapor and organic compounds. This mosaic was created from two high-resolution images that were captured by the narrow-angle camera when NASA's Cassini spacecraft flew past Enceladus and through the jets on Nov. 21, 2009. Imaging the jets over time will allow Cassini scientists to study the consistency of their activity. Image Credit: NASA/JPL/Space Science Institute

Stumble It!
Stumble it!
That was a lot of fun! although there must have been a mistake in the calculating.
10% scored higher
0% scored the same
90% scored lower SUPREME NERD. Apply for a professorshop at MIT now!!!
Can`t be right! I was looking forward to taking the next test until I saw the title…Are you a loser? I don`t want to know.
Veritas et Fidelis Semper
I scored a 28.
But then, chick’s dig me! (Especially the one who lets me live in her home, pays for my Trawler and sailboat)
I figured I got pegged on the calculator (still using my HP-41CV — RPN forever!) and having the microscope, telescope (8″ newtonian reflector BTW) AND I still have my slide rule from freshman/sophmore year. All that and a Poli Sci major – go figure…

But what did you expect for a formere grunt with a BA WW II History and an MA in Civil War History!
Still, it was a lot of fun. Thank you, and I hope that your commuting woes go a little smoother.

I a**ume the Russian means you’re a true rocket scientist, SJS, coz babelfish sez: “IT WILL BE the science of rocket!
Thanks for the link!
Rough translation of “It really IS rocket science!”…

Oh well, mid-level nerd — that’s me. I got a 76. Probably explains why I’m a computer tech-type.
Hey, my HP RPN calculator is the *only* one I can use and get correct answers! Had a miserable time with a graphing calculator when I had to be non-RPN.
At least HP still makes an RPN calculator for when this one dies …
98%, only 2% higher. Of course as a guy who has written software for web sites, missile systems, fighter planes, and satellites it sorta figures I should score high. RPN for the non-geeky is Reverse Polish Notation and it has nothing to do with the country Poland.
