ARE YOU
SETTLING IN ANDROMEDA?
Well, that must be a weird question for you. You might be
thinking about those star trek episodes with monster space ships and 50th
generation weapons.
Are you?
I don't know about others but this is the field of science
fiction that inspires me. And yes, you have every right to declare me a crazy
lad.
The point is that our Sun God is getting out of fuel, and
we can't import it from its nearest neighbor Mr. Proxima Centauri.
At some point of time in the future, it’s going to get
extinguished leaving this ball of dirt, upon which we live, in complete
darkness. And I don't want it to be the end of our story.
Ours a society, completely dependent on science and
technology where we have immense possibilities of doing miracles with it.
I get inspiration from everything that is a part of our
universe, from the small electrons to the gigantic galaxies with billions of
mysteries hidden in them.
And technology coupled with science is perhaps the best
tool to understand them.
Imagine that you have a Bucati Veyron spaceship, with top
speed 0.98 light years per second, parked in the garage of your farm house on
moon.
(For your kind information:- I am not a
disciple of Rajnikant!)
These are not mere fantasies. After achievement of
globalization, the next mission is to achieve ’universalization’.
And there are brilliant minds around the globe working on
this theme , among whom my favorite is Dr. Stephen Hawking!
This guy has beaten his neurological disorder and all
other physical limitations to emerge as one of the greatest minds of the
century.
(Sorry! Rajnikant fans.)
Whenever I see a machine working, be it a supercomputer
(on Youtube of course!) or a tiny watch, it adds to my craziness and catches my
nerve.
I immediately start dreaming about the immense effort
that we (creatures of blood and flesh) are putting to improve the quality of
our life. And space exploration is definitely going to be another chapter in
this history of human endeavor.
