Hmmm...

Careers I have considered

DREAM JOB:

Professional writer.  Like Popular Science writer.  Or a blogger.

Biologist. Improving humans via augmentations.  Saving the world from cancer, etc.

National Geographic photographer.  Partly because of this amazing video.

Industrial designer.  Like Sir Jonathan Ive.  Still one of my dream job.  When I retire, I want to buy a giant 3-D printing machine.  I’ll dream up designs in AutoCAD, and I’ll create whatever I want.

Navy SEAL.  Scuba-diving, snorkeling, and stealthy missions via submarines are really fun.  Not so keen on the enduring-unimaginable-hardship part.

Starving artist.  Doesn’t sound so bad, except for the starving part.

Graphic designer.  Saving the Gotham City from DC Comics.

Computer scientist.  Maybe if I take Computational Mathematics, I could combine this with my love of Aerospace.

Interestingly, I’ve never felt any desire to become a doctor.  I guess I lack that section of the Indian genome.

However, I got the 'engineer' section, as I'm studying to become a Rocket scientist.  Like Tony Stark (if you're wondering, he's Iron Man.

"There are no coincidences, ...only the illusion of coincidence."

V for Vendetta

That moment when snow flakes are slowly dancing in the street lights of the alley…

mars

It’s crazy how the dude (Lujendra Ojha) I vaguely remember from student center led the NASA research project that found water on Mars

Sitting in my room (back home in NYC) listening to Interstellar soundtrack is just an awe-inspiring experience! It was an epic scifi film, one with emotion, action, love, and sweeping landscapes of a ‘strange new world’. Surely everyone who has seen this movie probably felt some element of that.

But what really kept the philosophical meaning of the movie was the OST. I mean the score by Hans Zimmer is just absolutely dramatic and otherworldly! It just makes you fell as if you were witnessing the grandeur of our universe, the impossible and the pioneering voyages, right from the characters mind.

Oh (still listening to the music) and the empowering sound whilst giving us the violins, organs and horns of the epicness made his soundtracks magnificent. And, its just beautiful how Hans sneaks in his moving piano themes that brings out the characters emotions and yearning so very well. It just stamps these vibes and what you make out of the movie scene right into your head. 

Ok getting to the point here: Of course one of Interstellar’s novum is love. I still ponder on Brand’s quote “Love is the one thing we’re capable of perceiving that transcends dimensions of time and space.“ I mean Interstellar does not try to say that love is another dimension. It's actually just a beautiful metaphor?

Look, all of the emotional factors in Interstellar simply should not undermine the idea concept that love is just as solid and strong as the other forces making up our planet universe. So talking chemistry, love is no more unstable than certain radioactive elements, it pushes and pulls us better than gravity ever could, and it endures through time (metaphor, duh).

People who have seen interstellar interpret it in many different ways! Some are just blindly wowed by the science and how epic it was, and some.. 

(my eyes are drooping right now...i should perhaps get some sleep lol) But really, Interstellar is utterly filled with deep elements of existential-philosophical subtext! I’m afraid to use the word ‘love’ outside the quotation marks but yea! I’m just rambling at this moment.

Now, this is a true mobile revolution

Transcending tunes and epic time-lapse always go well together!

This is a very deep and poetic view of humans by the intuitive and genius mind of Carl Sagan. His breath marked of a great time for science.
