Science Daily: Solar Wind Tans Young Asteroids.
ScienceDaily (Apr. 27, 2009) — A new study published in Nature this week reveals that asteroid surfaces age and redden much faster than previously thought — in less than a million years, the blink of an eye for an asteroid. This study has finally confirmed that the solar wind is the most likely cause of very rapid space weathering in asteroids.

I was just thinking that maybe you need to change the name of this blog to something like:
Plasma is Mastery
Electricity is Mastery
Aether is Mastery
Reality is Mastery
Empiricism is Mastery
Or etc.
Good idea.
Not sure which though.
Aether?
I had no idea that asteroids were aged by their color....surely that must be wrong.
Really, so they know what an asteroide looks like before it's weathered?
