Astronomy Is Looking Up

Nicolaus Copernicus founded science of modern astronomy in the 16th century. Since that time the science has been the abode of hoary old men and few women who preferred, or were resigned to, long lonely nights upon mountain tops. It was never known for its “hot chicks” or for much in the way of intrusion upon “pop culture.”

Fortunately, this just might be changing. 😉

Geek Grrls, they’re not just saving science; they’re making it hot and embedding it in both their skin and American popular culture.

    I am the creator of a website AstronomyHumor.com.

    I also wrote an e-book ‘Your Galaxy Needs You – Astronomy, Astronaut and Alien Humor’ which I sell for $3.00 on my website.

    I’m working on second similar book and would love to include your tattoo photo.

    In return, I would give you credit with your name and your website. Who is the model?

    By the way, I am the volunteer webmaster for the Marie Drake Planetarium in Juneau, Alaska.
