A few days ago I guess I got to a new article regarded to astronomy in Yahoo! I don't remember exactly what was the title since I just had a glance at that and didn't have enough time to read it but it seemed to me there was something like "planets splash the satrs(eh?) like flies splash window-shop"!
But now when I search for this article with these key words I just don't find any results which sounds like that article.
OMG! Am I missing something while searching or ...eh was it just a dream?:rolleyes: I want that article so badly!:cry::cry:
