An important scientific discovery in the New York Post this morning. Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson has found Superman’s home planet. (He’s also the guy who got James Cameron to alter the constellations and make them more accurate when the “Titanic” was re-released.) Tyson tracked down a real location for the fictional planet using information supplied by DC Comics. Here are the directions: Get to the Corvus constellation, which is about 27.1 light years from Earth and look for the planet orbiting the red dwarf star LHS 2520—that’s Krypton.
