Nature VS Science
Filed by DrNecropolis | September 1, 2009
As we speak Mother Earth is currently waging an all out war on Science. The Earth of course loves us, and wishes us to keep our feet and minds planted firmly in her fertile soil. Which is why she is trying desperately to destroy the Hooker Telescope (waiting for giggles to stop…) atop Mt Wilson in Southern California. What’s so important about this telescope you ask? Well other than the fact that those things aren’t cheap, the Hooker 100 inch is the telescope we used when we discovered the Universe was still expanding. So not only is Hooker still contributing to our understanding of the the Universe, but it has Historical Significance as well! Although many observatories are designed to be somewhat fire resistant, fire still has a way of destroying stuff. So keep your fingers crossed!
