Nasa has made a discovery which they will announce today at 1pm. The Bitbag staff has already been notified of the discovery and apparently they’ve found Mario whisking around in outer space. Mario Galaxy is so popular even Nasa has their eyes on the game. Seriously though, here’s the announcement from Nasa:

NASA is going to announce a new discovery, oh yes the success of “Long Galactic Hunt”. NASA have gone ahead and announced a scheduled media teleconference Wednesday May 14, at 1 p.m. EDT to let everyone know about the amazing discovery of an object in our galaxy where astronomers have been hunting for more than 50 years.

This brand new finding will have people on the edge of their seats with excitement, this amazing finding was made by putting together or should I say “Combining” data from NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory with ground-based observations.
