As we near the end of another year…
We can take a moment to look back…
Not on the year passing,
though we will get around to that next week…
But we take a moment to reflect on the whole of earthling history.
This once humble rock spinning lifelessly in space…
Without an atmosphere to call its own…
Has come quite a long way in the last past 4.5 billion-ish years…
So as we gather around the yule logs this season…
Remember that as long as there is an earth…
Or as long as there are earthlings,
should we one day shuttle off this earthly coil…
We are all in this together…
From our humble beginnings to our futures yet unknown…
The story of the earthlings is yours to be told…
And nowhere else is your story told in as vivid detail as right here on…
This week in science,
coming up next…
This Week in What Has Science Done for me Lately?!?
“I’m alive because of science. I was born premature. In years past, I probably would not have made it. Only bad part is I can’t truthfully say, “I was born ready.”
