Astrophysicist Dr. Neil DeGrasse Tyson was asked by a reader of TIME magazine, "What is the most astounding fact you can share with us about the Universe?" This is his answer.

 Spring has arrived and a perfect weekend was had.

Discovered Instagram and am rather smitten.

Dear February,
You were a blur. I do not know how your 29 days passed in what felt like only several weeks, but I am not terribly sad about this either. You were mostly cold, and gray, and sleepy. There was too much wine and too much lazy. I’m ready to come out of hibernation.

Snowed in...

I prefer an epic sunset, however waking up to a winter wonderland is always a nice surprise…

“It is sometimes said that scientists are unromantic, that their passion to figure out robs the world of beauty and mystery. But is it not stirring to understand how the world actually works—that white light is made of colors, that color is the way we perceive the wavelengths of light, that transparent air reflects light, that in so doing it discriminates among the waves, and that the sky is blue for the same reason that the sunset is red? It does no harm to the romance of the sunset to know a little bit about it.” – Carl Sagan

It’s only the beginning of January, yet I’m already dreaming of summer sun…
