You are currently traveling 80% the speed of light, The time is now 6:30pm, Tuesday, august 15th. Your current course is forward. Your destination is the same as your starting location......but wait one minute Jonathan, maybe this is just a riddle..Maybe you are in our virtual reality program...it is up to you to find out where you really are and what is really happening, and if anything I have told you is even true. It could very well be possible that we are testing you, and that your only way out is to discover all the right answers. Good bye. Oh and Jonathan? Good Luck."
Well, that would certainly suck!

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.
