Actually, Venus and Saturn will only “appear” to collide because they are really millions of miles apart. However, on the nights of Saturday, June 30 and Sunday, July 1, 2007, the planet Venus will pass the planet Saturn by only two-thirds of a degree over the American sky.

Australian researchers are theoretically working on a “classical teleportation” method able to transport thousands of particles from one place to another. It’s not quite Star Trek®, but then again they will live (at least on TV) two hundred years in the future, in the 23rd century.
