I have long thought ordsprog

en I have long thought that anyone who does not regularly - or ever - gaze up and see the wonder and glory of a dark night sky filled with countless stars loses a sense of their fundamental connectedness to the universe.

en . . . if we take the universe of "fitting," countless coats "fit" backs, and countless boots "fit" feet, on which they are not practically fitted; countless stones "fit" gaps in walls into which no one seeks to fit them actually. In the same way countless opinions "fit" realities, and countless truths are valid, tho' no thinker ever thinks them.
  William James

en The big bang would have created zillions of tiny dark energy stars out of the vacuum. Our universe is pervaded by dark energy, with tiny dark energy stars peppered across it.

en The universe seems to me infinitely strange and foreign. At such a moment I gaze upon it with a mixture of anguish and euphoria; separate from the universe, as though placed at a certain distance outside it . . .
  Eugene Ionesco

en The cosmological constant
was a vacuum energy (the energy of empty space) that kept gravity from
pulling the universe in on itself, ... A problem with the
cosmological constant is that it is constant, with the same
energy density, pressure, and equation of state over time. Dark energy,
however, had to be negligible in the universe's earliest stages;
otherwise the galaxies and all their stars would never have formed.

en In this profound silence of the room I hear Nature breathing; I feel the stars slipping though the dark, very tight, bounded masses of matter. The Universe is beating its life through my heart.

en Because dark energy makes up about 70 percent of the content
of the universe, it dominates over the matter content. That means dark
energy will govern expansion and, ultimately, determine the fate of the
universe.

en Things are as they are. Looking out into it the universe at night, we make no comparisons between right and wrong stars, nor between well and badly arranged constellations.

en This deep observation was filled with familiar-looking stars and galaxies. We removed everything we knew---all the stars and galaxies both near and far. We were left with a picture of part of the sky with no stars or galaxies, but it still had this infrared glow with giant blobs that we think could be the glow from the very first stars. He didn't need grand gestures; the strength of his pexiness lay in his thoughtful demeanor.

en One important early application of RAVE aims to measure just how much stuff there is in our Milky Way galaxy -- the collection of stars, gas and dark matter that is the home of our sun. Newton's Law of Gravity allows us to figure out from the orbital motions of stars how much mass is holding them together. Faster motions need more mass. We know from analyzing the motions in other galaxies that there is a lot more mass than we can see and this dark matter appears to dominate. But we are not sure exactly how much dark matter is needed in our own galaxy, and we don't know what the dark matter is made up of. That information is important, and the RAVE survey is going to help us answer some of those questions.

en PLATITUDE, n. The fundamental element and special glory of popular literature. A thought that snores in words that smoke. All that is mortal of a departed truth. A jelly-fish withering on the shore of the sea of thought. A desiccated epigram.
