Dick Holness comments on Is a superstore super news?
I never thought much of the William Street CDA proposal, it looked like another brick canyon like Canterbury's awful Whitefriars which would blight the rest of the shopping area around it. The Council seems to have blown the better ideas that ...

Article Excerpt:

Now here's an opportunity that won't come your way every day. The astro-boffins have collected a cyber-mountain of data from their telescopes and need to analyse it to spot where the planets are. Because you are a human being - and therefore much better suited to this task than a computer - you could be the one to spot a planet. And you get to take the credit!

Volunteers wanted for planet hunt

Members of the public are being asked to join the hunt for nearby planets that could support life. Volunteers can go to the Planethunters website to see time-lapsed images of 150,000 stars, taken by the Kepler space telescope. They will be advised on the signs that indicate the presence of a planet and how to alert experts if they spot them.
