Space Break

The Chinese moon rover Jade Rabbit (Yutu, in Mandarin) was reactivated last week, having been set on "dormant" for a month after landing so as to ride out inclement "weather."  The rover begins its mission in earnest now.

NASA's Mars rover Curiosity steadily sends back pictures-- this one was taken on January 17th.
Lobster and Canary takes a mini-break this week, between the two-part interview with Mike Carey and another two-part interview to start next week, this one with poet, editor and publisher Sandra Kasturi.  In the meantime, we send our thoughts out into space, dreaming, dreaming....Daniel A. Rabuzzi is author of the fantasy novel "The Choir Boats," available from ChiZine Publications in September 2009.
"The Choir Boats" explores issues of race, gender, sin, and salvation, and includes a mysterious letter, knuckledogs, carkodrillos, smilax root,
goat stew, and one very fierce golden cat.
