The_Big_Dipper.jpgUrsa Major106 visiteWhen I talk to the trees
O'great trees who have learned to speak slowly
I know that they believe that they have an answer
Then I walk in the city where I cannot hear it...
When I talk to the city
I have already learned three answers
Before I call the question
And slowly, I wish myself among trees
But cannot hear myself wishing...
When I talk to the people
Who are the trees that grow in the city
They reply with a fond kindness, slowly
But there is no answer
For experience to be made by mistake...
Upon this key, time will slide,
Beyond the lock, you lose your mind.
And as our door becomes open,
A rush of sound is found inside
Creating dreams that pass you by...
You may live through your life a long long time..
But you will never know from where it came,
Yet all you've seen is what you've wanted to,
You`re walking forward as you look, behind,
Still watching those old memories fade and die...
This door is heavy, and is deeply stained,
With wasted tears, that try to fight in vain,
You may be sitting, feeling quite secure,
But listen carefully - and this key is yours -
For we can lead you far beyond that door...
There are dangers hidden, trust in that language
And it is precisely this conception that which must not be changed
The epitome of our language is patterns containment of thought and sound...
I die to fight!!
I die to fight!!
I die to fight!!
Upon this key, time will slide,
Beyond each lock, you lose your mind.
And as our door becomes open,
A rush of sound is found inside -
Creating dreams that pass you by...
Bent Cold Sidewalk, open the gate,
I may be late but I cannot longer wait.
Stealing the crown that stood me up,
I'm laying the table with dusty plates.
Bent Cold Sidewalk, open the gate,
I may be late but i cannot longer wait.
Playing the god to fix your gaze,
I'm holding you firm on another day.
Bent Cold Sidewalk, open the gate,
I may be late but I cannot longer wait....

Sharpless 140-SST-PIA05878_modest.jpgSharpless 140 Nebula - SST105 visite"...L'immaginazione non è infinita, tutt'altro. Noi, infatti, possiamo immaginare solo nei limiti costituiti e fissati dalla nostra capacità di elaborare dei "concetti" che sono, comunque, già in nostro possesso. Quando parlo di "concetti" indico, fra l'altro, forme e colori, tempi e distanze, semplici idee oppure oggetti fisici veri e propri. Mescolando i "concetti", possiamo creare, ma tutto ciò che creiamo, comunque, già esisteva, sia pure in una forma diversa, nei "concetti" usati in partenza..."

Sagittarius~0.jpgThe "Sagittarius' Dwarf Tidal Stream"105 visiteDa "NASA - Picture of the Day" del 29 Maggio 2005:"Recent 'Wide Field Images' and analyses indicate that our home galaxy is actually still in the process of devouring one of its closer satellite neighbors.
This unfortunate neighbor, the Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy, is now seen to be part of a larger Sagittarius Tidal Stream, a loose filament of stars, gas, and possibly dark matter that entangles the Milky Way. Speculation also holds that the Sagittarius Dwarf was once pulled through the Milky Way disk very close to our Sun's current location. An important resulting realization is that galaxies contain a jumble of clumps and filaments of both dim and dark matter".
Che sia questo residuo di onda mareale - o forse si tratta di un corpo oscuro 'dimenticato'? - la causa delle strane ed apparentemente inspiegabili accelerazioni e decelerazioni del Voyager, ormai giunto agli estremi confini dell'area di influenza mareale del Sole?
O forse non è poi così facile riuscire a "mollare gli ormeggi solari"?...

NGC-6394-HST.jpgNGC 6394 - Globular Star Cluster105 visite"...dal confronto dialettico con una persona di Cultura e Carattere, anche nella sconfitta si esce più ricchi e, credo, anche un pò più intelligenti; ma dal confronto dialettico con individui ignoranti ed arroganti, anche in caso di vittoria si diventa più poveri e, soprattutto, più stupidi..."

Magnetar.jpgMagnetars and Gamma Ray Burst sequence104 visiteDa "NASA - Picture of the Day" del 21-02-2005:"Last December, a dense sheet of Gamma Rays only a bit wider than the Earth plowed through our Solar System, saturating satellites and noticeably reflecting off the Moon. A magnetar near our Galactic Center, the source of Soft Gamma Repeater (SGR) 1806-20, had unleashed its largest flare on record. The brightness and briefness of the explosion's initial peak made it look quite similar to another type of tremendous explosion if viewed from further away - a short duration gamma-ray burst (GRB). Short duration GRBs are thought to be fundamentally different than their long duration GRB that are likely related to distant supernovae. In the picture there's a series of drawings depicting an outgoing explosion during the initial SGR spike. A fast moving wave of radiation is shooting away from a central magnetar. The possible link between SGRs and GRBs may become clearer as more and similar events are detected by the Earth-orbiting Swift Satellite".

NGC-7742.jpgNGC 7742103 visite"...Potremmo persino dire che, benchè sembri che la vita intelligente stia cercando senza sosta di diminuire localmente l'entropia, la vita stessa potrebbe costituire la ragione fondamentale per cui, un giorno, l'Universo morirà. E ciò perchè ogni volta che ha luogo un processo, una parte dell'energia utile del sistema si disperde sotto forma di calore. Può dunque darsi che lo scopo della vita sia, semplicemente, quello di facilitare la morte termica dell'Universo".
