Sunset on Mars
I am not religious. I do not see the hand of God in this picture, as those who are would. What I see is the profound beauty of the universe, a beauty that exists despite the profound myopia and stupidity of humanity.
...and as I am tempted to make a joke here to cut the gravitas, I won't. I will let the moment stand. It is beautiful. That is enough. I am reminded of Jodie Foster's line in Contact:
"They should have sent a poet...they should have sent a poet..."
