Wired Science Until the LHC starts up, the Tevatron is still king. Can it eke out one last major discovery? Read about the past, present and future of high-energy physics, filled with rivalry, victory and misery.

Hubble is fantastic! Its our window on our galaxy. Here's hoping it gets better and better optics, or failing that it is replaced with an even better telescope in space...

It still doens't address the issue that people will feel it being an intrusion. It's an engineer's solution to a psychological problem. I disagree it's the "publicity" that hasn't made it so popular.

Persons downloading the application would be doing so because they understand the reason and purpose of the project. If I invite my wife to come and eat at our favorite restaurant, I may find it safe to assume that she is aware that it will require various actions: going out in public, interacting with a stranger (a waiter), paying for a service ... Read Moreand expecting a return for the transfer of funds, etc. It seems to me that those using the application may have reached a "confort zone" as to their expectations of privacy or the potential vulnerabilities to their lives. I agree that this (as nearly all things when it comes to people) comes down to anthropology and psychology. It is my hope that people consider using this application as an opportunity to further enhance the reaches of human knowledge.

Abhishek, please follow these sites in order to have your thoughts addressed: "http://www.clavius.org/" and "http://www.badastronomy.com/bad/tv/foxapollo.html." You can also go deeper and read some physics articles (google scholar has some nice ones) related to the arguments regarding people landing on the moon.
