Sound I Like (also Known As Music)
Sound I like (also known as music)
Before you start to read this post, listen to this music as you read through.
My taste in music is “eclectic”*. I like all of the music I listen to, so obviously I have really good taste in music.
There is nothing quite so magical or moving as an powerful orchestral piece played by a full symphony orchestra. I have nothing against poppy music, nor do I have anything against wild bashing and screaming music (except that I mostly hate it), but if I were stuck in Antarctic for the rest of my life, I would die quickly of Hypothermia listen to epic soundtracks like:
“Imagine the Fire”, Hans Zimmer, The Dark Knight Rises
“The Promise”, Michael Nyman
“Extraction Point” , Hans Zimmer, Modern Warfare 2 (a video game with epic score?)
“Escape”, Craig Armstrong
London Philharmonic’s finest.
Or simply instrumental.
If you’re still listening to the music, I hope so, right? Imagine you’re sitting in that room, as a group of 50 people playing a song – using violins, bass drums, cellos, and a touch of piano – it precisely melds together into a beautiful, powerful, multifaceted sound… and it’s just magical as the conductor keeps the whole thing together..
As you might have seen in movies (like Harry Potter), a wand is portrayed as an instrument for magical occurrence. If you realize, a conductor’s baton (wand) also produces magical waves. I mean, with the flick of a wrist, a conductor can shape music like a painter with his paint brush. He can create striking thunders from the bass drums to the electrifying sharp pitch of the violins.
*I really do have a weird (wide spectrum) taste in music.
By the time I finished writing this, I realized that music is an expression, as it can only be played or heard (its really hard to ‘talk’ about music).

forever
I don't believe in luck. I do believe we've known each other since forever, though. Her: Really? Yeah. You know how? When the big bang happened, all the atoms in the universe, they were all smashed together into one little dot that exploded outward. So my atoms and your atoms were certainly together then, and, who knows, probably smashed together several times in the last 13.7 billion years. So my atoms have known your atoms and they've always known your atoms. My atoms have always loved your atoms.
Launch day! Watch Samantha, Terry and Anton leave Earth for ISS today.

lone explorer from Earth around Saturnian system
An awe-inspiring journey captured by Cassini in the 13 years it’s been observing the Saturnian system. It is humbling and breathtaking to see the spacecraft taking images of the glowing and sun-eclipsing Saturn.
Preemptively, in few hours, Cassini will burn up and disintegrate like a meteor as it enters the Satrun’s atmosphere at 70,000 miles per hour.
It is truly a privilege to be part of NASA’s JPL to explore the grandeur of the universe.
delta(climate)
so a while back the U.S. Supreme Court demand quantitative rationales for regulatory decisions; hence, the scientific study on climate change goes beyond the facts and maintains fidelity by using economics ideas. Since the climate change study uses probability and uncertainty for risk predictions, they raise questions about the epistemology on how scientists know what they know, and what evidences are used to validate the study... basically what i’m saying is that looking at these presidential debates, it almost (well, certainly) feels like they are a mere chicanery onto discussing dogma and not the future of our humankind — say virtual reality or sending bots to alpha centauri. Its just kinda sad to see how gullible our society is. This just reminds me of the philosophical psychology of Sherlock Holmes. Essentially we, as evolving species, should be more mindful as in to be more aware — we must observe, not merely to see, that is with our eyes, but the rest of our senses (im just saying not to be ignorant and think critically [though this is such a generic term])

FYI: it is epic when you watch it on fullscreen with your earphone.

In a nutshell or two: I love aerospace. I'm an engineer, writer, a photographer, and a reader. And, of course, a blogger. I spent my high school years in New York City, managing to defy every urban bum new yorker stereotype (except for the "bum" part). My school life basically revolved around Aviation and Science Bowl. If you continue to read this, I can assure you three (3) things: (1) impeccable grammar (yea, ok) and spelling (thanks to auto spell check), (2) a total lack of entertainment (literally, everyone’s view of entertainment is different), (3) an alliteration of photos, and (4) so many listings. (and of course parentheses)
