Richard Feynman, Ph.d.

The thirst for knowledge and inquiry are, I believe, in our DNA. Feynman’s constant questioning of his environment and things that interested him led to research, development and finally, discovery. When I go out at night at look at the stars I can say “How beautiful those lights in the sky are” and leave it at that. Or I can go further and use a telescope to get a closer view.

This process of learning can go on and on ad infinitum and lead me to the study of astronomy. The more I learn of those “beautiful lights in the sky” the more I am in awe of how our solar system works. After looking at pictures that the “Hubble” telescope was able to give us, I have a whole new respect for the field of astromny and am astonished at what “those beautiful lights in the sky” really comprise.
