Explore the universe with Twitter

A live scifi story on Twitter. What a great idea!

 

Twitter has become an important element of my day. I follow friends, acquaintance and organisations. I also follow the likes of @ApolloPlus40 (Nature News twitters the Apollo 11 moon mission as it happened — 40 years on) and @MarsRovers as they explore the universe.

This morning I gained a new follower, and as always, checked who they were. It turns out that Captain Keanus Argus is:

I am Captain Argus of the Cassalonian space ship Excalibur. 12,000 years ago my home planet was destroyed in a supernova in galaxy Cassiopea

Yup. I followed back. A live sci-fi story, distributed via Twitter. Works for me! [Check out the great background graphic on his Twitter profile too.]
