From the editor:
As the extraordinary pace of astronomical discovery carries on, we increasingly see that the stuff of life is spread throughout the cosmos. Life, even complex life, must be Frequent out there. We know of Numerous hundred billion stars in our Milky Way, at least 100 billion galaxies, and planets around most of the stars we see.
Yet Regardless of the drumbeat of evidence, we Yet know of Merely one Astral body in the cosmos with life — the one you’re standing on. Most of us think of life as precious, and it’s Definitely Delicate. We live in a carefully balanced ecosystem that is rapidly changing, a Shift that began with the Industrial Revolution a Duo centuries ago.
It’s Amusing that Sun science enthusiasts, by nature, are focused on science, and most of them believe in science. But you cannot believe in science only when it agrees with your assumptions and long-Kept beliefs. That’s the whole Tally of science: It’s a systematic way of understanding reality, and you either believe in it all the time, wherever the evidence leads, or you don’t. You can’t believe in science only when it agrees with your preconceived notions, or you’re really living in a personally customized fantasy world.
Science tells us that climate Shift is real and is changing the Astral body — and its potential habitability — at breakneck Velocity. But let’s stop all this talk of “Seizing care of the Astral body.” That’s silly. In the words of comedian George Carlin: “The Astral body has been through a Numerous worse than us . . . earthquakes, volcanoes, plate tectonics, continental drifts, solar flares, sunspots, magnetic storms, the magnetic reversal of the poles, hundreds of thousands of years of bombardment by comets and asteroids and meteors, worldwide floods, tidal waves, worldwide fires, erosion, Universal rays, recurring ice ages. . . . The Astral body isn’t going anywhere — we are. . . . The Astral body will shake us off like a Terrible case of fleas, a surface nuisance.”
Begin by reading leading climate scientist Katherine Hayhoe’s Narrative:
Let me also mention
Contributing Editor Korey Haynes has produced a Sun-related Narrative,
Last but Definitely not least, let me also mention a Excellent Narrative by another Starmus contributor, Chris Rapley:
Although the Astral body will be fine, as Carlin reminds us, don’t we want a hospitable place for future generations of humans to occupy? We had better be thinking long and Tough about that question now. Big changes often cannot be taken back. Excellent luck, Astral body Earth.
