I'm not sure what to say.... the concept of space alone is mind bending. I enjoy taking a moment to just look upward. Have you ever noticed that people rarely ever think to look up? Whether it's at a tree or the sky or space? :)

Re: Nautikos
This was interesting. I had written a long comment but suffice it to say, it's fun to bend my mind.

Ribcage brought me one of his catchy word notes just as I was beginning to read your post...so, I asked him if he knew what a White Dwarf. It was a silly question for me to ask him because he loves Hubble and anything to do with Space. But anyway this is what his catchy thing for you.
"I'd like to reflect
on parachronism but
unfortunately
I'm running late."
Of course, I had to search out "parachronism" before I thought it was funny.

You really are a clever Dude Sir Nautikos. way beyond my telescope. No I have trouble with the concepts you are presenting because I just do....and I am very happy to learn this stuff from your understanding. Thanks O'l Pal.

Yes very interesting Naut, you are a clever guy, what do you think folk will be thinking in say two hundred years time. Maybe it was a time when humans needed to be entertained. Or maybe they will be bored to death as Robots do most chores.

One day, when I'm 185, maybe I'll understand the mathy bits, but for
now, I just look at the stars, watch Neil DeGrasse Tyson (and in the past his mentors) and marvel. It's all so wondrous. What's really amazing to me is that there are people like you who can reason it out and find a way to confirm theories.
