Probe Sent to Uranus

Houston, TX - A group of nerds with glasses and pocket protectors, NASA, have decided it's time Uranus got probed. Using the largest probe ever sent to Uranus, NASA, according to Rocket Scientist Darryl Hammerdine, says, "We really want to get in there, get into Uranus, and take a look around."

In the past, getting a probe to Uranus has been rough, but with recent advances in technology, NASA plans to 'astro-glide' the probe straight to Uranus.

Hammerdine has promised there will be lots of pictures of Uranus on the internet after the project is complete.

Aliens Thwart US Plan to Blow Up Moon

Moon, THE - As a NASA rocket using 'kinetic energy' to 'impact the Moon' to 'test the ejecta plume for water' neared its target, the promised live video feed of the event was cut. While NASA is officially blaming the loss of the feed on 'technical issues,' the final frames of live video sent over the web clearly depict saucer-like objects closing in on the camera.

Astronomers with powerful telescopes are feverishly blogging to anyone that will listen that the promised impact never occurred, reporting instead that the rocket and its companion probe exploded before they hit the surface.

NASA and the US government have imposed a media embargo on the entire event, instead insisting that malfunctions cut the feed and that the event was a 'total success'.
