h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

OK! I've finished the Moon entry...

I haven't proofed it yet, but it's done!

I'm going to go and see if I can add anything to the rest of the Solar System. But *please* don't ask me to do Venus!

Actually, glad I could help out. But I've got to get some Subbing done while Anna's on holiday.

Many smiley faces in your direction. Thankyou!! and Venus is taken care of... I quite like Venus as planets go, but my fave. is Neptune.

Believe it or not, I'm actually rather fond of the Moon. And Mars! I'm hoping one day my daughters will be able to walk on one of their surfaces...

The girls are five and 13 months, so I hope that's not too optimistic!

Oh I'd like to actually ~go~ to the moon, but all the stuff I read, scientists at such and such a place are using lunar dust to prove such and such a thing... It put me right of writing about it. The other one I didn't want to do was Mars, for pretty much the same reason, I guess 'cause they're best known. But Happily someone else here didn't share my qualms about Mars...

& I don't think thats too optimistic...

Is it okay to reccommend both our entries? Or would you like to do anything to your entry before I reccommend it?

You're the boss on this one...

Go ahead and send it in. I'll give it a final read before anyone else can get there.

What about Planet X, I know it's only fabled but there are many theories, black hole, huge planet etc (Pluto isn't big enough to great the wobble in the orbit of neptune.)


Ohm could add some numonics for helping beggines remember the order of planets.

I think that in the next upgrade (I'm pleased with this one) there should be a special feature added where a real live gatering thingy can happen, say between a few people who want to write an entery. So a blank page would be set up, X number of people enter an then they can all write a guide entery together in real time. Pretty neat.


Nick, the blaberings have ended.

Princess, I like the shield on your page.

Hi there Did you have a good time?
I had a go at finishing your Jupiter entry here http://www.h2g2.com/A402003


I considered some planet X theories on the Kuiper Belt page, but there's not another planet very near Neptune 'cause Clyde Tombaugh would've found it, he sureveyed the sky for it.

The shield's cool, isn't it

What if it's black or just dark?

But what could it be made of to be perfectly black? If the hubble space telescope can see teeny little Kuiper Belt objects, why should it not be able to see that? http://www.nineplanets.org/hypo.html#planetx gives a whole list of hypothetical planet Xs, there's just too many.

Ahh but.... errr..... umm... oh well.

Who knows, but it hasn't been seen yet if it is there and I'm loosing this disscussion. Doh.
