The visual representation of this segment of time and space are a continuum of spectrums of light and gas from planets and galaxies multiple light years away. Maybe thatβs the technical side of space. But Iβm more curious into what others think of space. Is it a waste of time to explore or are we just touching on the brink of something out there that could change life as we know it! Iβm biased as this is what I do for a living, but actually have had an infatuation with space since I can ever remember. We kinda take it for granted when we look into the sky at night. We look at the distant stars β¨ and say βThatβs coolβ. But we really have no clue what is going on up there and it is always on my mind. I canβt even imagine what it must be like, to be an astronaut and explore even the outer realms of possibility and the unsaid thoughts that were really not alone. If there was something seen out there, would they be sworn to secrecy to not cause a frantic mass-exodus in the general populationπ±
These questions often run through my head when I daydream about what truly is taking place, and who is consciously taking accountability for its existence. To me most look at space as, just that, something that takes up the sky. But gets brushed off like a homeless person that you pass on the street. Do I act like I donβt see it, and keep walking and going about my day, or do I provide food for nourishment, and a helping hand, or a thought for what manβs next step might be, if this world we live on needs to be abandoned.
Outer space to most is just that! Do I care so much because itβs a part of my livelihood, or because I truly want to help humanity with concentric alternatives to life as we know it. What if we βDOβ discover life forms on a far away planet.? What is the logical next step? Do we forge on, and make contact and establish a baseline for connectivityπ€
Iβm full of questions and definitely have more of them than I have answers. But what I do have is a thirst for knowledge and a sheer love for the unknown and the constant battle to learn something new every dayπ§
