It's almost the weekend, but before you shut down your cubicle and run outside for some fun, we've got one more show to tide you over until Tuesday (we're dark on Monday, since it's a holiday). Today, we're chatting about NASA's sweet Solarium installation, which surrounds visitors in video walls playing high-definition views of our sun, and we're also trying to figure out how we feel about Facebook allowing you to designate a "Legacy Contact" to run your Facebook profile after you die.

Google's new Knowledge Graph is also on our docket, and the stuff we're into this week includes Nerdist podcast
