You may have noticed that I have ‘fallen off the internet’ this week, as a friend of mine recently said in a text message. Well the reason is that I have been attending a meeting about star formation and the Spitzer Space Telescope.

I am part of the Gould Belt Survey team working with Spitzer legacy data. Currently I am sat in a meeting but I thought I would post an entry explaining my absence from the web, which will actually continue for the next couple of weeks.

I may still posts the odd cool Digg story and the Abram’s Skynotes will continue. In the meantime, keep the emails coming in and watch out for the space station in the next few days. there are some more good sighting awaiting all of us.
