Caroline Moore, a 14-year-old girl from Warwick, New York, discovered a weak supernova, SN 2008ha, with a "relatively small telescope." She is the youngest person ever to discover a supernova, and it's an odd type of supernova, at that.
America needs a million young people like her. Thinking people, not mindless drones being churned out of public schools by "social promotion."
Way to go, Caroline!

...and you are so right, yes America needs more young minds like that. Thanks for sharing your info Marvin. Anna :)
That IS an awesome story. Damn, I should put my telescope to greater use!
Dude, u should have faith in youth, it is true that many are screwed by Playstation, WII, sex symbols and junk food but there is still hope in the way we raise our kids ;)
