Washed Away (by Gregory Boratyn)
Taken in Lower Antelope Canyon, Arizona.
It eats me up that I didn’t get to see this place when I was out west. GUESS I’LL HAVE TO GO BACK.
Lou Bernstein, Coney Island, 1951.
Throwback to that time I saw my first cactus. #arizona #tbt #excite
We Originated in the Belly of a Star, NASA Lunar Science Institute, 2012. (via we-are-star-stuff)“Consider that you can see less than 1% of the electromagnetic spectrum and hear less than 1% of the acoustic spectrum. As you read this, you are traveling at 220 km/sec across the galaxy. 90% of the cells in your body carry their own microbial DNA and are not “you.” The atoms in your body are 99.9999999999999999% empty space and none of them are the ones you were born with, but they all originated in the belly of a star. Human beings have 46 chromosomes, 2 less than the common potato.
The existence of the rainbow depends on the conical photoreceptors in your eyes; to animals without cones, the rainbow does not exist. So you don’t just look at a rainbow, you create it. This is pretty amazing, especially considering that all the beautiful colors you see represent less than 1% of the electromagnetic spectrum.”
Wildly, shamelessly attracted to a man smoking.
