“There Are A Few Things In Life So Beautiful They Hurt: Swimming In The Ocean While It Rains, Reading

NASA rover Perseverance successfully lands on Mars and is now ready to look for signs of ancient life!

At around 4pm ET yesterday, NASA’s most sophisticated rover yet, Perseverance, landed on Mars. It will spend at least one Mars year—687 Earth days—searching for signs of ancient life on the red planet. 

It has a friend waiting: NASA’s Curiosity rover, which landed on Mars in 2012.

The landing of the six-wheeled vehicle marks the third visit to Mars in just over a week. Two spacecraft from the United Arab Emirates and China swung into orbit around the planet on successive days last week. (Bill Ingalls/NASA via AP).

‘ [...] It is dangerous to ignore the existence of the irrational. ’

Donna Tartt,The Secret History (1992).

sometimes a family can be a young woman cursed to look like an old hag, a melodramatic literally heartless wizard under a spell, a fire demon, a little boy, a sentient scarecrow with a turnip for a head, a formerly formidable and terrifying witch, and a dog.
