You can join us online for The Cosmic Signal May 8th! [Starstuff, Contemplating]
One of the most powerful discoveries given to us by science has been learning the astounding and glorious history of how we got here. A key part of that discovery was the finding of the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation (CMB, see picture below), literally the glow of the Big Bang or Great Radiance itself! The actual structure which gave us our earliest baby picture of ourselves was under threat from developers (for building a condo unit – seriously?), but with our efforts and the efforts of many others last year, was saved! Join us this coming Thursday, 7 pm EDT to celebrate! You have to register ahead of time to attend.

The seasons just aren’t what we think they are. If you’re paying attention, and you can let go of preconceptions, it’s obvious. There’s not four of them. And they’re all different lengths. And they each have their unique quality. It’s not just about temperature. There’s precipitation, humidity, wind, storms, cloudiness, the smell of the air. It’s still more or less predictable. But it’s a lot more complex. It’s not even a wheel. It is circular-ish, but it’s not a circle. It weaves and bobs, ebbs and flows.
