modern loneliness

what does the man in the moon think

when he looks down and sees us

does he see the young boy who has his heart touched by seeing the stars for the first time

does he see the man crying, screaming for help because he’s trapped in his own mind

does he see the young couple and their first kiss

does he see the old man weep over the woman who he lost

does he choose to see the love or the pain

do you choose to see the love or the pain

I can’t wait to be a Scientist one day and get in an argument with someone and be like “well my research shows this” and then they’ll dispute my research and I’ll cry

what’s the point of looking to the stars

trying to touch the things we will never touch

Comet ATLAS

i would kill to be there

to feel the shaking of the earth

as we strap our best and brightest onto a barely controlled explosion

to send them into a void devoid of life

what’s the opposite of spaghettification

how do you feel ab X Æ A-12

assuming the voyager spacecrafts immediately did a 180 at the same velocity and ignoring all concepts of trajectory, the voyager spacecrafts would take ~40 years to get back to earth.

the voyager spacecrafts wouldn’t be able to survive reentry and so we would have to orchestrate a huge mission where we send up astronauts to “catch” the probes and bring them back to earth. i would watch the hell out of that movie.

An old friend just returned to us

The stars you see at night are not transcendent objects made from aether as Aristotle believed: they are made from the same material as you. They are your distant relatives and when you die you will return to them. As our planet reaches its firey demise, your atoms will spread across the Universe and you will become part of another planet, perhaps even another living being. Maybe ancient humans who worshipped the stars chose their gods wisely.
