"It seems that the black anodised paint had been chipped off"
An anodised surface doesn't chip/flake off like paint because it isn't paint. If Apple are advertising it as anodised then they're lying. It's flaking off then it's because it's a crap paint/coating job.
not as obvious as it would initially seem:
"GRAIL-A will arrive in lunar orbit at 1:21 p.m. PST (2100 GMT) on Saturday December 31, and GRAIL-B on Sunday January 1 2012 at 2:05 p.m. PST (2200 GMT)."
but:
"one specific spacecraft (GRAIL-A) to follow the other (GRAIL-B)"
So GRAIL-A gets there first but actually ends up behind GRAIL-B; presumably it (A) does a few orbits of the moon then slots in behind B, once it arrives.
Errr, why would it be "www.coke.coke" or "www.twitter.twitter"?!
They'd be more likely to just use www.coke or www.twitter, for example.
Saying that they wouldn't even need to necessarily continue the convention of using the "www"; they may choose to use something like web.coke, mobile.coke, mail.coke or whatever they want for whatever purpose they choose.
