I want to contemplate the universe silently, listen to the sounds of our planet, and investigate the possibilities of “broken heart” syndrome (the feeling of uselessness that job loss and lessening family responsibilities may have played in my father’s untimely death).

I’ll be back next week sometime.

Congrats to SpaceX on completing the ISS resupply mission successfully.  Won’t be long before they can transport people into orbital vehicles, eh, Mr. Bigelow?

Blog correction: thanks to a reader for pointing out that it wasn’t an Armitron, it was a Casio watch I once owned that squeaked several musical phrases as alarms.

Will keep viewing the dozens of blogs I follow to see how Earth influences our species’ actions in cyberspace.
