From 9:47 PM to 9:48 PM CST a once in 257 yr astronomical event is going to occur that you can experience in your very own homes. The planet Pluto will pass behind Jupiter, temporarily causing a gravitational alignment that would counteract and lessen the Earth's own gravity. British astronomer Patrick Moore reports that if you jump in the air during this brief time that this planetary alignment occurred, you will experience a strange floating sensation.


This is pretty cool. I wonder if Sean Marks can now actually dunk tonight in his game against Denver tonight.

And here I thought Pluto had been deemed a non-planet. Have they changed their minds again?

Well what I want to know, Jim, is how did you enjoy the event the last time it occurred?
