For all you astronomy lovers out there, The International Astronomical Union (IAU) discovered another planet. They have dubbed it, Makemake.
Fourth Dwarf Planet Named For Polynesian God
Also, on August 12, 2008 there will be the Perseids meteor shower (aka shooting stars.) It will be a beautiful site. (It can be used for a romantic outing.) (Binoculars are good for star viewing if you do not have telescope, but meteor showers can be seen without either.)
