Happy Birthday!
Only The Longest Threads is one year old today. Party favors were a must. So, here's a soundtrack to make space-time travel smoother, as you move between centuries, and continents and scientific theories.
“Einstein didn’t frame his questions as: “what happens to light if …” but instead as “what would I see if I were to ride a light beam?” or “what would I feel if I were in free fall, in a box out in space, far away from any gravitational field?” Einstein cast himself as the protagonist of the story. That’s exactly what we do when we read fiction! I had never noticed the parallel before.”

“Being a scientist means that you should be able to put your faith to the test, and be willing to surrender it should evidence so require. But it does not mean we have no beliefs. In fact, the very discipline of science is based on the belief that the world is comprehensible, and even more audaciously, that it is mathematically describable. The thing about scientific beliefs is that they are not arbitrary. They’re not just random opinions we plucked out of the sky; we came to them through observation and experience, and so far, these beliefs have always been vindicated.”
