Astromeg’s astrothoughts | Where I contemplate the multiverse
http://www.rigel.org.uk/astromeg
Where I contemplate the multiverse. Solarsphere: two festivals in one. Last weekend saw the first Solarsphere festival. An extravaganza of music and astronomy hosted at Penmaenau Farm in Builth Wells, Wales. And what a weekend it was! The farm is well set up for hosting small festivals, with indoor stages, onsite catering, including a bar, and plenty of camping space. Even the ablutions were pretty good, by festival standards! Talk about visiting the planets with spacecraft! Suggested by Chris Lintott.

Once a week, Jordan Winery. Posts a new video on their youtube channel. Yesterday, award winning Jordan blogger and PR person extradinaire Lisa Matttson and her team at Jordan went Gangnam Style and posted this parody of PSY’s K-POP youtube megahit that has had the most views of any video ever. While the Jordan video may not hit the million mark, it went from 250 yesterday to nearly 1000 views today and is sure to bring a laugh to wine drinkers familiar with the images in the original. Make wine at home.
