Quote by Edgar D. Mitchell

Since I first posted this, these words seem even more poignant.

I think I know how this very brave man felt.

“You develop an instant global consciousness, a people orientation, an intense dissatisfaction with the state of the world, and a compulsion to do something about it. From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch.”
― Edgar Mitchell

Humans. A clever species? Maybe not

Looking at this BBC news item it seems that one group of human monkeys are squaring up to another group of human monkeys as to who owns bits of the Earth. So in a future time when Homo Sapiens have possibly gone extinct either by war or climate change would an intelligent visiting alien species or a future evolved and greater consciousness discover these imaginary lines that the dumb human monkey currently draws on the planet’s surface?

Maybe we, if we want to move the species forward, could create International Peace Zones, called IPZs, that would belong to no nation where we separate two nations by say a 20km Earth Zone where there would be no Homo sapiens allowed. Regeneration zones where plants, insects, animals and birds etc could do what they were meant to do, evolve, without the interference of the very human centric mindset of a monkey that thinks he owns the planet. I say he because it’s still a majority of the male monkey that actually causes the problems in regards to the imaginary lines that said monkey draws on Earth’s surface. They are also, in the main, the ones that point guns at each other and I suspect that it’s the ones with the penis, that again in the main, design, develop, sell and run the companies that churn out ever better ways of killing those other monkeys. Time for the Homo sapiens monkey to move on, grow up or shuffle off the pale blue dot and let other life get on with evolving.

The pinnacle of human consciousness

Originally published on the 10th of February 2022. Almost a year later and if anything the situation is worse, perhaps far worse. And yet outside of our petty little disagreements the greatest instrument that humans have ever built collects more and more information about the majesty that is our universe.

The pinnacle of human consciousness but with war and preparation for war, Ukraine, North Korea, etc and the increasing mathematical possibility of our species extinction through not acting to solve climate change we risk not being here to receive and analyse the data from what is our greatest feat of science and engineering. The human primate needs to make a massive leap in its development. Our descendants if we survive our current stupidity will be nation less, we will be one nation, the human nation. https://phys.org/news/2022-02-nasa-james-webb-space-telescope.html

A moment of our time – What am I? – part 52

Part 52 of my A Moment of Our Time. It’s not in the book yet and is in a different format to the other parts of the book.

So this is the end of my long piece entitled A moment of our time in which I have tried to describe all that happens in any one given moment of time. Not a second because a second is too long. A moment in which all the matter and energy in our known universe goes through some sort of change. This last section covers the very small. Having read it again I can see that there are plenty of things that I could have added to the work. One day when I have more than just a moment I will hopefully go back and revisit it.

Microcosm

Think about every atom at that moment

Think about every particle at that moment

Think about every undiscovered particle at that moment

Think about every wave form at that moment

Think about every photon at that moment

Think about every wave of radiation striking the Earth at that moment

A moment

A moment of our time – part 50

Revisiting part 50 of my A Moment of Our Time and humans now number at least 7.9 billion and counting.

Getting very close to the end of my long piece of work. How many of Earth’s 7.8 billion plus inhabitants ever consider the universe? How many of them have been educated sufficiently enough to understand what it is?

Universe

Think about the Earth moving around the sun at that moment

Think about how far the Earth has moved around the sun at that moment

Think about how far the Moon has moved around the Earth at that moment

Think about the other planets revolving around the sun at that moment

Think about the other moons spinning around those other planets at that moment

Think about the other objects revolving around the sun at that moment

Think about the other asteroids revolving around the sun at that moment

Think about the other comets revolving around the sun at that moment

Think about the sun revolving around the centre of the galaxy at that moment

Think about how far the sun has moved around the centre of the galaxy at that moment

Think about how much hydrogen has been turned in to helium in the sun at that moment

Think about how far all the celestial objects have moved relative to each other at that moment

Think about how much the universe has expanded at that moment

Think about the other stars in the galaxy at that moment

Think about the other galaxies in the universe at that moment

If we think of a moment it is quickly forgotten and we move on

A moment of our time – part 48

Revisiting past 48 of my A Moment of Our Time.

I wrote this long before the “closer to home” war broke out with Russia invading Ukraine. There’s a lot of money to be made out of human stupidity, suffering and greed.

War

Think about all those conflicts taking place at that moment

Think about all those weapons being produced at that moment

Think about all those weapons stockpiled at that moment

Think about all those bombs and missiles for military planes at that moment

Think about all those missiles aimed at each other at that moment

Think about all those unexploded munitions around the world at that moment

Think about all those submarines at that moment

Think about all those tanks at that moment

Think about all those missile launchers at that moment

Think about all those civilians caught up in conflict at that moment

When was the last time that you checked when that moment occurred?

A moment of our time – part 47

Revisiting part 47 of my A Moment of our time.

The transport theme continues in this section of A moment of our time. Imagine at any given moment how many planes there are in the sky polluting our planet.

Planes

Think about all those planes flying at that moment

Think about all those planes taking off at that moment

Think about all those planes landing at that moment

Think about all those planes being built at that moment

Think about all those small planes at that moment

Think about all those commercial planes at that moment

Think about all those military planes at that moment

A moment of our time – part 46

Revisiting part 46 of my A Moment of Our Time

Part 46 continues with the theme of transport and in this section it’s about shipping. During the corona virus pandemic seafarers were treated very badly and there are signs that to recover lost money that their contracts will become worse. Apart from the extract I’m going to leave the link I included yesterday regarding the 15 minute town and city concept that is being implemented in Paris as this will be crucial for our sustainability.

The 15 minute town and city concept is a really big part of the solution as personally owned cars are not sustainable. https://www.ted.com/talks/carlos_moreno_the_15_minute_city?utm_source=newsletter_daily&utm_campaign=daily&utm_medium=email&utm_content=button__2021-01-25#t-459254

Ships

Think about all those ships sailing at that moment

Think about all those ships and what they are carrying at that moment

Think about all those ships being built at that moment

Think about all those ships being dismantled at that moment

Think about all those ships with cargoes of live animals at that moment

Think about all those container ships sailing at that moment

Think about all those cruise ships sailing at that moment

Think about all those warships sailing at that moment

Think about all those oil tankers sailing at that moment

Think about all those fishing boats sailing at that moment

Think about all those yachts sailing at that moment

Think about all those grain ships sailing at that moment

And more moments will pass before you finish reading this
