Love in Outer Space – Or Just in Your Head?
The diagram compares the planets of the inner solar system to Kepler-62 Source: By NASA Ames/JPL-Caltech - http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/kepler/news/kepler-62-kepler-69.html, Public Domain, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=25666606 In galaxies near enough to our own there could be dozens of earth-like planets. Amongst these exoplanets there exist at least two “ocean planets”. Named after the Kepler spacecraft that first spotted them Kepler-62e and Kepler-62f are claimed to orbit the star Kepler-62 every 122 and 267 hours. Kepler-62, which is smaller and cooler than our sun, keeps these two planets in its “habitable zone.” In this position they may receive enough light and warmth for moving liquid to be present on their surfaces. Research published by the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CfA) suggests that both planets may have surfaces that are totally covered by ocean. Stanislaw Lem might have thought he … [Read more...] about Love in Outer Space – Or Just in Your Head?

In defiance of all expectations, post-truth politics won and Donald Trump was soon to be the most powerful individual on the planet. My British stiff upper lip was no match for the shockwave. My American wife’s can-do spirit was buckling under the emotional wallop. An adequate response seemed beyond my grasp. But then, an uninvited thought popped into my mind - What would Gandhi do (WWGD)? In shattering times like these, it can be hard to know how to respond. When faced with crisis, we often turn to role models who can offer … [Read more...] about What Would Gandhi Do About Trump?
It’s Just Not That Important
Source: Pixabay The rush—sometimes it starts the moment you get out of bed! You might be late, or have forgotten to do something the night before, or perhaps you’ve overslept. It’s a mad dash to get out of the house and to wherever you need to go. You get in your car and it’s like a force takes over—you find yourself driving fast, refusing to let other drivers get in front of you and taking corners on two wheels. The mad rush continues and careens into your day. What’s the result of the rush? Traffic fatalities have risen significantly as a result of rushing, and by the time you get to your destination you are worn out from the stress of gripping the steering wheel too tightly. You know that rushing and being anxious and worrying about whether you will get there on time—and in one piece— can impact your physical body as well as your mind. And when you rush, you are likely to make more mistakes, overlook things and be less … [Read more...] about It’s Just Not That Important
