Carnival of Space 149 is up on Starry Critters.

Step right up; no need to crowd. Be one of the first to revel in all the strange and won­drous sights the uni­verse has to offer. For you, my friends, are about to expe­ri­ence the best astro news gath­ered from Earth’s inter­net, with a com­plete archive.

Carnival of Space 148 is up on Celestial Spider.

Come one, come all, the Carnival of Space is here! See strange and marvelous sights, explore the universe, and spend a little time in the spacey side of the internet :-)

Carnival of Space 146 is up on Simostronomy.

To quote this week's host Mike Simonsen:

...For those of you new to the Carnival, let me explain. The Carnival of Space is a collection of links to stories and articles from astronomy and space related blogs. Each week a different blogger or webmaster in the community hosts the carnival. It's a great way to reach a wider audience, showcase your writing, and get to know other writers in the field.

Carnival of Space 145 is up on Crowlspace.

It includes this great picture from the Mars Exploration Rover ‘Opportunity’. See the picture in 3D on The Road To Endeavour.

Carnival of Space 144 is up on Discovery News.

To quote Ian O'Neill:

To mix it up a bit, I wanted to be clever and do a "theme" post this week, possibly based on the Oscars, but that wasn't very original; my pal Ethan Siegel did that in 2008. But who said I had to be original? Besides, this is probably the first year that I actually sat down and watched all the Oscars without falling asleep, so I'm going to blatantly copy Ethan's idea.

So here it is, the 144th Carnival of Space, Academy Award Style! (Without a single mention of Avatar. Sorry Cameron.)
