Greetings from Ophiuchus

I always keep an eye out for 'things new' in the universe. Recently, I sold a story to Asimov's Magazine; Breeze from the Stars, that will be out sometime in the next year, I assume. And it features a strange effect on people who are born on the orbital platforms under the sign of 'Ophiuchus' a zodiac sign that was dropped from our zodiac a long time ago. A 'wind from the stars' is actually funneled down into our solar system from that direction, and I did some SFnal things with it. Sorry, you'll have to read the story to find out. :-) BUT...today, as I read the 'space news' what do I see? Voyager I is out there, in the direction of Ophiuchus, near the boundary of the 'heliosheath' the 'skin' around our solar system formed as the solar wind slows down. The magnetic turbulence of that sheath scatters a lot of cosmic radation that we don't want to experience down here. But lo, potholes exist in that sheath. And good old trustworthy Voyager I, our early Engerizer Bunny' is finding interesting anomalies out there. Such as cosmic radiation with no apparent source. And that breeze from the stars? Well, Voyager will be inside that heliosheath for another ten years or so...so stay tuned for further events.
