I like New Scientist. This weekly British popular science publication was able to maintain reasonably high standards. More or less.

But not last week. Typos or the occasional excess hype on the cover page are one thing, but what is the excuse for this?

For the record, the solar system is not traveling at two-thirds the speed of light in its voyage around the center of the Milky Way.

To their credit, it has since been corrected on the Web site, but still. Very disappointing.
