Candles (and Riddles) in the Dark

"Our species needs, and deserves, a citizenry with minds wide awake and a basic understanding of how the world works."





"Who are we? We find that we live on an insignificant planet of a humdrum star lost in a galaxy tucked away in some forgotten corner of a universe in which there are far more galaxies than people."






"For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring."










For Carl Sagan
