It's all LIFE

 The Marginalian newsletter, to which I subscribe, gave an interesting article this last week:

We are the Music, We are the Spark: Pioneering Biologist Ernest Everett Just on What Makes Life Alive.

"This is the great bewilderment: that out of a cold austere cosmos arose the roiling wonder of life, from the tiniest archaeans that have “confronted sulfuric boiling black sea bottoms and stayed” to the cathedral of consciousness ringing with music and mathematics and poems about archaeans; that we are here trembling with all this love and all this suffering, all these "vicissitudes of aliveness, and all the while each one of the atoms in our bodies can be traced back to the core of some particular star that died long ago, some insentient cauldron of chemistry and chance."

You can tell this is a scientific viewpoint, but with philosophy and poetry intermingled.

I'll leave it to you, if you're interested to go to her article, through the link above.

This Super Cluster is known as "The Boss" spanning 1 billion light years across, containing at least 800 galaxies.

Today's quote:

Have patience with everything that is unsolved in your heart and try to cherish the questions themselves.
