It was astronomy that got me interested in science as a child. Who could resist the beautiful images? I borrowed astronomy books in the school library, some multiple times! I also lived relatively close to the Griffith Observatory and marveled at the planets seen through an optical telescope. I am in awe of the images coming from the Webb telescope - check out NASA images of the Pillars of Creation taken by the Hubble and Webb!

The ancient Greeks had methods for randomizing data. Check out this piece of hardware called a kleroterion. Thank me when it comes up at trivia night.

Who doesn't appreciate a good viz? I share with you some beautiful aerial photography from Niaz Uddin. Scroll down to Nature and Romance (10th image down), it's my favorite. And his Astro portfolio is breathtaking!
