My name is Simon I'm an engineer, creator, free thinker and occasionally writer. For far too long I had ideas and nowhere to put them for the world to see, that's why Planet Simon was created.
I'm an experimenter, explorer and fascinated by the world around me and the people in it. My exploration goes further than the known universe and expands out to universe's I've created in my mind and put onto the creative canvas.
I'm not the person I used to be and over time I have evolved and the blog is evolving with me. Whatever this blog is in the future it's a place where all are welcome and ideas can roam free to find their magical place in the universe.

Rosetta is on Comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko. It’s going to be on there a little while now, like a few million years. It just won’t be working… we do leave our rubbish laying around! lol

Mars?
Oh great! And here was me this week waxing lyrical to my wife about great rushes of water carving canyons on Mars’ surface…(Stupid Scientific Progress!)
Amazing news about Jupiter. The notion of thunderclaps being so loud (and vast I guess) that they generate heat!.
As always Simon thanks for keeping us updated
