A test of the MoonKAM on board one of NASA’s new GRAIL probes resulted in the first ever video of the crater-infested dark side of the moon. In addition, NASA is launching an education initiative that will allow middle school students to control the MoonKAM and explore specific areas of the far side.

Facebook’s IPO is on the brink of making a lot of people rich – including graffiti artist David Choe, who was hired by Facebook back in 2005 to decorate the walls of the company’s Palo Alto headquarters. For compensation, Facebook offered him the choice between a few grand and stock, and although Choe thought Facebook’s concept was “ridiculous and pointless” at the time, he wisely went with the stock – which is about to make him worth around $200 million.
Hopefully Choe’s streak of genius continued without selling off any of his steak in the company – but so far he hasn’t commented on the matter.

Martin Kaltenbrunner developed this Arduino-powered “Tworse Key” that plugs into an Ethernet port and allows you to tweet via Morse code.

Although the Tworse Key isn’t for sale, schematics are available for those who want to tackle the job themselves. Hit the jump to see a video of the device in action.
