Really Big and Really Small Scale Sciences
The Fundamental Nature of Reality Big to Small...
We follow Astro-physics and Science News for fun, because the Nature of Life itself is pretty darn entertaining on its own merits. Understanding the Nature and construction of our reality is a pragmatic move for all its "operators," but especially for backpacker's finding context in, and navigating the terrain to both ascertain & clarify our place in the Universe.
This is the amazing universe we are walking through.
Interestingly enough, we have to understand the fundamental nature of the motions & relationships within the Universe around us to find our precise position on this Earth, to understand our context within its Nature, and how we can or cannot fit perfectly into the greater Universe around us.
We follow science to better understand ourselves, what we are hiking through, and our choices along our journey.
