Wishing you all a happy and enjoyable weekend ahead!
"I am just a child who has never grown up. I still keep asking these 'how' and 'why' questions. Occasionally, I find an answer."
Quote - Stephen Hawking
I found an answer too!!! As the note says: "The answer is right here". But what was the question....? :-)))
Happy Wall Wednesday!!
“A still more glorious dawn awaits
Not a sunrise, but a galaxy rise
A morning filled with 400 billion suns
The rising of the milky way...”

For the Man who Demystified the Stars (1942-2018)
* Stephen Hawking was born January 8, 1942, on the 300th anniversary of Galileo's death.
* He died today, March 14th 2018, on the anniversary of Einstein's birth.
---- Time is Circular - No Beginning, No End -----
Stephen Hawking’s A Brief History of Time explains that one travels from the past towards the future in the space-time of one’s expanding universe, without contradicting the thermodynamic, psychological and cosmological arrow of time.
Three millennia earlier Homer sang that all mortals face death (Odyssey book 11).
As we are all time travelers towards the inescapable future of death, religious Faith takes over. Faith chooses to cease caring about the increasing entropy: in God we trust for He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life (John 14, 6). A cemetery is merely a luminous time machine towards Him, as plain and simple as that. God is not limited by any dimension, not even time’s!

Written by David Gilmour, Richard Wright and Polly Samson, it was sung by Gilmour and also features samples of Stephen Hawking's electronic voice, taken from a BT television advertisement . This same commercial was sampled again in "Talkin' Hawkin'" from Pink Floyd's next studio album, The Endless River. Gilmour chose to use the speech after crying to the commercial, which he described as "the most powerful piece of television advertising that I’ve ever seen in my life.” The song also makes some use of the talk box guitar effect.
*Working Towards a Better World
Saving our planet, lifting people out of poverty, advancing economic growth... these are one and the same fight. We must connect the dots between climate change, water scarcity, energy shortages, global health, food security and women's empowerment. Solutions to one problem must be solutions for all.
Ban Ki-moon
Sooner or later, we will have to recognise that the Earth has rights, too, to live without pollution. What mankind must know is that human beings cannot live without Mother Earth, but the planet can live without humans.
Evo Morales
We are in danger of destroying ourselves by our greed and stupidity. We cannot remain looking inwards at ourselves on a small and increasingly polluted and overcrowded planet.
Stephen Hawking
Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! xo💜💜
You Crossed the Rainbow Arch to get Access to Heaven & to the Stars ... I hope you get some answers today, 14 March 2018 ...

I never stop being surprised by every new day. Who created this world ?!! When did it start. No day is ever the same. Beautiful cold morning, snow, hot coffee, window with railroad view, warm library, empty road.

rest in peace
“Remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see and about what makes the universe exist. Be curious. And however difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do, and succeed at. It matters that you don’t just give up.”

The best known kind of event horizon is that of black holes - one of the earliest fruits of Einstein's General relativity, due to brilliant work by Karl Schwarzschild in 1916. A black hole's horizon is a boundary in spacetime from which no signal or radiation can come out to affect an external observer. Put in a simpler way: no light, radio waves, or any other kind of radiation emitted from inside the event horizon can ever hope to escape from it, because in that region the black hole's gravitational pull is so strong that not even light (travelling at the craziest possible speed in the whole universe) can overcome it. So the event horizon is what makes the hole, well... black. Incidentally, I would slightly prefer something like "not-even-black hole", but I suspect that this term would not stick ;-)*
Of course, this narrative is not about black holes - the direct observation of the immediate environment of a black hole with angular resolution comparable to the event horizon is one of the Holy Grails of astrophysics - but I felt the need to attempt and clarify a bit what the concept means.
I was at Cala de la Vinyeta in Calella, as in my previous upload, Primeval light. No black holes there, but a pretty unremarkable, middle-aged yellow star some 4.5 billion years old - yet our most precious friend for a whole lot of reasons.
I was fairly sure that the sun was still below the horizon, as my watch suggested; but the cliff enclosing the Eastern end of the cove hid the very point of the horizon from which the Sun would have risen. I perceived that looming bulk of rosy rocks - would-be rosy sand in a handful of centuries - as an event horizon effectively keeping out of my view the focal point of the approaching sunrise. I decided not to mind the thing - who knows, I thought, sometimes one discover unexpected treasures just out of the trodden track... Moreover, I would not waste precious minutes in tentatively looking for another pov - since, I knew, there are further rocks beyond the cliff.
As the radiance beyond the cliff was growing more and more in the cloudless sky, I began to feel thankful to my personal event horizon for shading my camera from the intense glow :-) So I happily took my exposure bracketing to be processed with luminosity masks and went on enjoying my photographic session.
I am not happy with some parts of this shot - mainly the sea - but I like the glorious glow beyond the cliff, hinting to the hidden sunrise without revealing it. This is the common thread of this series from Cala de la Vinyeta.
* Hope that Hawking will forgive my omission of the radiation named after him, which, however, is produced at the event horizon - so effectively endowing black holes with a temperature, if not with colour.
I was very sad to hear of the passing of Stephen Hawking today. He was a brilliant mind with words of wisdom and a quick sense of humor.
Out of all the things he said, this quote still makes me laugh: "Women. They are a complete mystery."

Tribute To Stephen Hawking (1942 - 2018)
My special tribute to the great World renowned Physicist, Scientist and Unique Personality that was the Professor Stephen Hawking (1942 - 2018).
The Universe have a new Star since today ...

Nebula created for this work with several images of NASA and artistic techniques.
This my artistic option has to do with the dream and joy of life I wanted to give, despite the fatality of his illness throughout his life.
We lost the giant in the world of knowledge i.e. Stephen Hawking. Hawking is one of the greatest minds after Newton in the study of physics.
His popular book is "A Brief History of Time - From the big bang to black holes". I hope my analogy is not a very bad one here.
The reading of a paper book would be the birth of knowledge and birth of your reading universe. The modern day electronic reading device will be just black hole sucking you all into it. And this is the brief history of reading. :o)
Have a great day! Have a great reading day!

GEORGE E O SEGREDO DO UNIVERSO
from website for George's Secret Key to the Universe!
George's Secret Key to the Universe is an adventure story where all the adventures are based on real science. It is a journey across space to learn more about the Universe in which we live and a journey through physics - the laws that govern the Universe - to understand more about it. But it's also the story of a lonely boy and how his life changes when he meets his new next-door neighbours, Annie and Eric. Annie is mad about the ballet and Eric, her father, is a scientist. Eric works with a computer called Cosmos who is so powerful and so clever he can draw you a doorway, through which you can walk (if you're wearing a space suit that is! It's very cold in space, around -270 C) to any point in the known Universe.
Now, my computer and yours may not be as powerful as Cosmos, but we've still got some wonderful and exciting pictures to show you on our website. You too can see some of the amazing sights in outer space that George discovers. Like George, you can go on a journey to places that no other human being has been before.
Writing this book with my dad, Stephen Hawking was a lot of fun for both of us. So I hope you enjoy George's Secret Key to the Universe and I hope you want to come back to hear more about George's adventures next year, when he takes off once more, destination unknown . . .
Best of luck with your cosmic voyages and remember, Space Rocks!

to me colossal mind , amazing man....
I agree with NASA , that: “His theories unlocked the universe of possibilities that we & the world are exploring. … May you keep flying like superman in microgravity.”

The brightest star in the firmament of science whose insights shaped modern cosmology. He was an extraordinary, brilliant and humorous man whose work and legacy will live on for many years.
Incredibly saddened to learn today of his passing.
A particularly hot day and dusty atmosphere back in February produced Rayleigh scatter and made for a spectacular visual at dusk when the sun appeared as a massive red disc in the western sky.

Stephen Hawking 8 January 1942 - 14 March 2018. He had to be one of the greatest scientists of all time. A person I respected and greatly admired.
“For millions of years, mankind lived just like the animals. Then something happened which unleashed the power of our imagination. We learned to talk and we learned to listen. Speech has allowed the communication of ideas, enabling human beings to work together to build the impossible. Mankind’s greatest achievements have come about by talking, and its greatest failures by not talking. It doesn’t have to be like this. Our greatest hopes could become reality in the future. With the technology at our disposal, the possibilities are unbounded. All we need to do is make sure we keep talking.”
Not many black holes available to see from the garden so here's one I made.
So, possibly not the world's greatest photograph, but it's all I managed to grab on my iPhone whilst working at this event! You can see Professor Hawking on the left, and the presenter Sue Lawley on the right behind the lectern.
My department at the Beeb (Radio Current Affairs) is responsible for recording Radio 4's annual Reith Lecture series. The 2015 lecturer is Stephen Hawking, and finally tonight we recorded the programme, after postponing the original date last November due to Professor Hawking's ill health.
So me and my colleague were responsible for both the sound at the live event and also the multitrack recording which is mixed for the Radio 4 and World Service broadcast versions.
I took this little snap quite near the end, during the extensive Q&A session, in which I was holding the microphone and going round the room holding it up to the questioners as they read their questions.
It all seemed to go off very well, and the audience were in rapt attention throughout, which is always good.
I believe it goes out on the 26th Jan, and more details can be found here:
A tribute to one of the greatest minds of our time. I wish I had our copy of "Cosmos" to watch right now.

"Here are the most important pieces of advice that i've passed on to my children ...
- One, look not to look at the stars and not at your feet.
- Two, never give up on work. Work gives you a meaning and a but and life is empty without it.
- Third, if you are lucky enough to find love, remember it's there and don't throw it away. " - <3
and keep your/our childhood dreams... let's see the space when night is here... but let's see the blue sky when sun is here.

...but then I said, "In that frame of reference, the perihelion of Mercury would have processed in the opposite direction!"
Based on the opening scene from "Descent, Part I," the season six finale of Star Trek: The Next Generation.
Stephen Hawking always seemed to have a dose of humour in his vision of the Universe & the disease that limited his movement but never his mind, so I left the laughing emoji in......unless this is the emoji for " I have no lower teeth" in which case it is highly inappropriate.
Hawking considered himself an atheist, so I'm not sure what he would of made of the "home sweet home" comment ? To quote him " I regard the brain as a computer which will stop working when its components fail. There is no heaven or afterlife for broken down computers, that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark"
