At the Beyond Belief conference, astronomer Carolyn Porco describes the spirituality inherent in the scientific view of the Universe. To see what a science-based religion might look like in real life, take a look at yoism.org Go to http to see the rest of this three part series (you can also download this video there). And see www.yoism.org to understand what we mean by “saint” in Yoism and why we refer to Dr. Porco as “Saint Carolyn.”

Hubblecast 24: Beyond Earth – Telescopes In Space. There’s no better place for a telescope than space itself. Above the Earth’s atmosphere observations are no longer hampered by air turbulence, so telescopic images of distant stars and galaxies are razor-sharp. Unlike a ground-based telescope, an instrument in Earth orbit can operate twenty-four hours a day and reach every part of the sky. Observing from space also makes it possible to study types of radiation that are otherwise absorbed by the atmosphere. Little wonder that the Hubble Space Telescope has made so many contributions to astronomy. And Hubble is not alone – more than 100 space observatories have been launched since the 1960s.

Click Watch in HD “NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has discovered carbon dioxide in the atmosphere of a planet orbiting another star. This is an important step along the trail of finding the chemical biotracers of extraterrestrial life as we know it. The Jupiter-sized planet, called HD 189733b, is too hot for life. But the Hubble observations are a proof-of-concept demonstration that the basic chemistry for life can be measured on planets orbiting other stars. Organic compounds can also be a by-product of life processes, and their detection on an Earth-like planet may someday provide the first evidence of life beyond Earth.”
