Missing Baryonic Mass in the Universe... Found!
Astronomers have finally solved one of the outstanding mysteries in cosmology. Forget about all the dark matter and dark energy, where’s all the missing regular mass in the Universe? This has been called the “missing baryon problem”.
They’ve been chipping away at the problem, finding missing matter in the vast gulfs between galaxies, and in the last few months, a team of astronomers have finally found the outstanding missing matter.

*Update* I'm just in an airport hotel, getting ready to fly home after touring around Queensland, Australia with Karla. We had an amazing time, saw all kinds of wildlife, and met some great people. Thanks to everyone in Australia who we hung out with, I can't wait to return.
Apologies for the lack of live events, we'll be back in business this week. :-)

It's actually flying in orbit around the Earth, but the Earth is turning underneath it, so when you map that out it looks like a sine wave.
Question. Why does the ISS fly in a sine wave instead of a circle around the Equator?
