“In primary school when I was 6-7 years old, I always go to theater with my uncle, and I don't know why I like the atmosphere, dark only. The screen has some lighting, that kind of things, you can see the movie star and so that's why I like movies.” KnowsYearsKindSchoolStarsDarkTheaterScreensPrimariesAtmosphereUnclesMovie StarLightingPrimary School Author:Andrew Lau
“The reason we have the stars twinkle at night is because the light is being kind of blurred by the atmosphere around the Earth. That is why the Hubble Space Telescope is so good, because it is above the atmosphere. So it is kind of like looking at the sun from the bottom of a swimming pool, versus looking at the sun above the swimming pool.” KindReasonLightEarthNightStarsSpaceSunBottomAtmosphereBe KindSwimmingPoolVersusTelescopesSwimming PoolHubbleHubble Space Telescope Author:Michael J.

“We living things are a late outgrowth of the metabolism of our galaxy. The carbon that enters into our composition was cooked in a remote past in a dying star. The waters of ancient seas set the pattern of ions in our blood. The ancient atmospheres moulded our metabolism.” PastStarsWaterBloodSeaDyingLateAncientPatternsAtmosphereCompositionCarbonGalaxyLiving ThingsMetabolismIons Author:George Wald
