Journey to Jupiter

Don't forget that tonight's new episode of Naked Science on the National Geographic Channel will cover the Galileo mission to Jupiter. The show starts at 8pm EDT (or 7pm MST, at least on HD channel). The webpage has a 3 minute long trailer for the show, so you can check that out now.

As far as other news goes, there is a press release about how Jupiter may have eaten its young and that the Galilean satellites we see today are the survivors of this early, cannibalistic period. Also, Emily Lakdawalla has a post on her blog discussing New Horizons images of the Neptune and Triton taken late last year.
