The Beatles are expanding their listening audience…by about 431 light years. NASA will be beaming their song “Across the Universe” in celebration of several anniversaries. The song itself is 40 years old, the Deep Space Network has been around for 45 years, and NASA is having it’s 50th birthday this year. Since Polaris is 431 light years away, it will take the song 431 years to reach it. Perhaps there will be an alien with an ear to the sky who will hear the song in the year 2439.

About Me
- The Chic Geek
- Even from the Apple IIGS days back in the late 80’s, I’ve always been interested in computers. The computer industry and I go back seven years and during that time I graduated college Summa Cum Laude with a BS in Computer Science in 2001 (yep, I have a BS degree). Currently I work as a systems admin and have been in that position for the last five years. Despite the current rigors of being an admin, I still view technology as being fun. One of the things I enjoy doing is helping people learn how to use their computers. Learning the basics of a computer and understanding how the computer works isn’t so bad (really, I promise!). I hope to help my readers to better understand their computers and really feel comfortable with using them. Even if a user is already computer savvy, they can always come away with one tidbit that makes their life easier.
