“Optimist” is a word which here refers to a person, such as Phil, who thinks hopeful and pleasant thoughts about nearly everything. For instance, if an optimist had his left arm chewed off by an alligator, he might say, in a pleasant and hopeful voice, “Well, this isn’t too bad. I don’t have my left arm anymore, but at least nobody will ever ask me if I am right-handed or left-handed,” but most of us would say something more along the lines of “Aaaaah! My arm! My arm!”

Just because something is traditional is no reason to do it, Piracy, for example, is a tradition that has been carried on for hundreds of years, but that doesn’t mean we should all attack ships and steal their gold.

“You’re an interesting species. An interesting mix. You’re capable of such beautiful dreams, and such horrible nightmares. You feel so lost, so cut off, so alone, only you’re not. See, in all our searching, the only thing we’ve found that makes the emptiness bearable, is each other.” ~ Carl Sagan

planing on getting Netflix purley for this

Netflix to Produce Original Series Based on ‘Lemony Snicket’ Books

Netflix has acquired rights to produce an original series based on best-selling book franchise “A Series of Unfortunate Events” by Lemony Snicket.

YES!

I find these sad but also strangely beautiul at the same time

(Just so anyone unacquainted - a word that here means unfamiliar - with A series of unfortunate events can appreciate the work of Lemony Snicket)

A good library will never be too neat, or too dusty, because somebody will always be in it, taking books off the shelves and staying up late reading them.

It looked exhausting and pointless, two things that should be avoided at all costs.

It’s time for a new give away! 

“The Martian” is an epic science fiction book of survival by Andy Weir. “Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he’s sure he’ll be the first person to die there.”

“Neurocomic” is a remarkable collaboration between neuroscientist Dr. Hana Roš and neuroscience-PhD-turned-illustrator Dr. Matteo Farinella, which explains the inner workings of the brain in awesome illustrations, covering everything from hallucinations to memory and emotional recall to consciousness.

The best-selling science book ever published in the English language, COSMOS is a magnificent overview of the past, present, and future of science. By the one and only Carl Sagan.

Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield’s beautiful book, published in October, “You Are Here: Around the World in 92 Minutes: Photographs from the International Space Station" shows Earth in all of its glory.

To win the book you want, reblog this post and follow Sci-Universe! The first winner will be chosen at random on 25th June. Have your ask box open so I can contact you!
