Death by Black Hole: And Other Cosmic Quandaries
Neil deGrasse Tyson
it’s truly incredible to think about how far we’ve come in our study of the universe, it all began with the things we could see, hear, and feel, and with nothing but pure curiosity about the vast unknown. imagine looking up at the sky and having absolutely no idea what you were looking at or what any of it meant. we still don’t know everything about the universe, of course, but we know enough today for it to feel less frightening (and perhaps even more mysterious lol) and yet i guess people back then did know everything, or at leaast everything they believed was possible to know. most scientists centuries ago probably thought they had discovered all there was to discover. and look at us now, look at everything we know, everything we’ve studied, everything we’ve discovered! it’s incredible!! and what’s even more extraordinary is thinking about all the things we’ll discover in the future, things we can’t even imagine yet (i'm rooting for the we live inside a black hole theory) there is still so much out there waiting to be understood and I think that’s one of the most amazing things about the universe: no matter how much we learn, there will always be something more to discover!! 🤯
