“

Physics says: go to sleep. Of course
you’re tired. Every atom in you
has been dancing the shimmy in silver shoes
nonstop from mitosis to now.
Quit tapping your feet. They’ll dance
inside themselves without you. Go to sleep.

Geology says: it will be all right. Slow inch
by inch America is giving itself
to the ocean. Go to sleep. Let darkness
lap at your sides. Give darkness an inch.
You aren’t alone. All of the continents used to be
one body. You aren’t alone. Go to sleep.

Astronomy says: the sun will rise tomorrow,
Zoology says: on rainbow-fish and lithe gazelle,
Psychology says: but first it has to be night, so
Biology says: the body-clocks are stopped all over town
and
History says: here are the blankets, layer on layer, down and down.

theremina:

Around a million, billion neutrinos from the Sun will pass through your body while you read this sentence.

A nutrino is a neutral sub-atomic particle of such small mass that it passes through matter undisturbed.

Its mass has never before been measured accurately and this picture is a device that was set up to detect nutrinos, as VERY ocasionaly they will colide with matter producing energy in the form of light/heat. but this energy is so small that it is virtually undetectable.

Nutrinos are formed from redioactive decay, or nuclear reactions, which is why the sun gives of so many.

HAHAHAHAAHHAAHAHAHAAHAHAHHAHAHAHA

I love this movie, it will never ever get old to me.

This scene is so pretty!

gehayi:

According to the Law of Conservation of Mass, matter can neither be created nor destroyed. This means that all atoms are recycled over time. Which in turn means that our own atoms are ancient as well. One’s skin could have carbon in it from a meteorite or from a trilobite thousands of years old, and your blood could contain hydrogen from earth’s original atmosphere.

Or, to quote Carl Sagan:

“The nitrogen in our DNA, the calcium in our teeth, the iron in our blood, the carbon in our apple pies were made in the interiors of collapsing stars. We are made of starstuff.”

I would like to make a Sunshine reference, but I’m afraid Remy would make fun of me…

Cos she hates that movie and she’s always making fun of me for liking it as much as I do.

But still. This is pretty awesome stuff.

when a stellar bomb is triggered, very little will happen at first. then a spark will pop into existence and it’ll hang in there for an instance, hovering in space. and then it will split into two. and then it’ll happen again and again, and again. a big bang in a small scale. a new star born out of a diamond. i think it’ll be beautiful. no, i’m not scared.

pumpkinlub:

Our sun is dying. Mankind faces extinction. Seven years ago the Icarus project sent a mission to restart the sun but that mission was lost before it reached the star. Sixteen months ago, I, Robert Capa, and a crew of seven left Earth frozen in a solar winter. Our payload a stellar bomb with a mass equivalent to Manhattan Island. Our purpose to create a star within a star.
