Although there wasn’t much happening in space last week, what there was was pretty cool.  You may remember Asteroid 2008 TC3 which was detected by NASA shortly before it impacted Earth in Sudan last October. 

Well, now they have recovered actual fragments of this asteroid.

Other than that, not much is going on.   The Cassini program has created a virtual flyover of Titan, which is cool but just assembled form old data.  And, New Horizons has detected Neptune’s moon Triton
