Saturn’s Moon Has Oxygen
Robert Morningstar wrote, “A NASA spacecraft circling Saturn has discovered a wispy oxygen atmosphere on the ringed planet's icy moon Dione.” The Cassini spacecraft spotted an ultra-thin layer of oxygen ions so sparse that it is equivalent to conditions 300 miles (480 kilometers) above Earth. On Dione, there is just one oxygen ion one for every 0.67 cubic inches, but it's still enough to qualify as an atmosphere, Cassini mission scientists report, "We now know that Dione, in addition to Saturn's rings and the moon Rhea, is a source of oxygen molecules”. Robert Tokar of the Los Alamos National Laboratory stated. "This shows that molecular oxygen is actually common in the
Saturn system." Thanks to Space.com
Strange Disc Object
Dean writes, “I got this off the NOAA SATS, what do you think, kind of strange, as you look at it, there is a strange shape at the bottom of Lincoln Near-Earth Asteroid Research (LINEAR) photo”.
In cooperation with the Air Force, MIT's Lincoln Laboratory has been operating a near-Earth object discovery facility using a one-meter aperture GEODSS telescope. GEODSS stands for Ground-based Electro-Optical Deep Space Surveillance and these wide field Air Force telescopes were designed to optically observe Earth orbital spacecraft from Socorro, New Mexico.
A near-Earth object (NEO) is an object whose orbit brings it into close proximity with the Earth. In the period between March and July 1997, a pixel detector discovered four NEOs and many more have been discovered.
They include a few thousand near-Earth asteroids (NEAs), near-Earth
comets, a number of solar-orbiting spacecraft, and
meteoroids large enough to be tracked in space before striking the Earth. It is now widely accepted that collisions in the past have had a significant role in shaping the geological and biological history of the planet. NEOs have become of increased interest since the 1980s because of increased awareness of the potential danger some of the asteroids or comets pose to the Earth

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad announced the Islamic Republic was ready to renew nuclear talks with members of the UN Security council and will allow inspection of nuclear sites. Most likely the action was the result of the oil Embargo placed on Iran and pressure placed on the Iranian leadership by the Russians and threat of Israeli attacks..
President Ahmadinejad publicly admitted the economic sanctions placed on the country’s central bank and oil production has created hardship for the Iranian people. Western Intelligence agencies and the UN believe Iran is performing weapons tests in secret.

Now we can understand why gold and silver is high, because the US $ is being consistently undervalued by its own actions! This Congress has spent more money in the last three years, than the combined spending of all other Congress’s in the history of the United States.
