Lawrence M. Krauss
“Now, almost one hundred years later, it is difficult to fully appreciate how much our picture of the universe has changed in the span of a single human lifetime.

As far as the scientific community in 1917 was concerned, the universe was static and eternal, and consisted of a one single galaxy, our Milky Way, surrounded by vast, infinite, dark, and empty space.

This is, after all, what you would guess by looking up at the night sky with your eyes, or with a small telescope, and at the time there was little reason to suspect otherwise.”

I go upstairs, walk across the grass, sit on a bench in the Avenue of Oaks � and there, in my solitude, I enjoy the pleasure of weighing the rays of dead stars.”
Auguste Villiers de l'Isle-Adam, Tomorrow's Eve
