Google Moon
After Google Maps and Google Earth, Google today introduced Google Moon.
In honour of the first lunar landing, on July 20, 1969, we can now surf the Moon’s surface and explore the landing sites of the Apollo missions. (Courtesy of NASA, of course.)

The code of Carl Munck
If you’re interested in history and ancient monuments like Stonehenge or the pyramids, and you like fiddling around with numbers, take a look at this site.
It’s about coordinates of these monuments, ancients weights and measures, mathematical constants, and even “monuments on Mars”, such as the famous “Face on Mars”. There are all kinds of relations between all these numbers, or at least – we are led to believe that. It sounds all a bit too far-fetched, if you ask me…
Revenge of the Sith
This afternoon, we finally went to see Star Wars: Episode III. Very nice. I had actually hoped Anakin could be stopped from turning to The Dark Side, but alas… 
A minor drawback, I thought, is that the last part of the movie is more or less “predictable”, because you know of all the loose ends that have to be tied up, all the questions that have to be answered, since you already know the sequel. How does Anakin become Darth Vader?
What about his children?
, et cetera.
By the way, I recently found some of the Star Wars movie scripts, so I tried to collect all of them from various sites. I’ve got all six of them now. See my wiki. Upon my search I came upon The Internet Movie Script Database. If I had known that before… Anyway, if you want any other movie script, check out IMSDb!
Madagascar
Yesterday evening we went to Madagascar. No, not the country. The movie!
My brother and sister-in-law from Bristol were here for the weekend, so the four of us went to the cinema in Vlissingen. It’s a very funny movie about 4 wacky animals who… well, just read the rest from Ari’s weblog. BTW, I do agree with Ari that it’s not as good as, for example, Shrek. But it’s nice.
