Weekend Diversion: Make 2015 A Year In Space (Synopsis)

“We are not the same persons this year as last; nor are those we love. It is a happy chance if we, changing, continue to love a changed person.”  -W. Somerset Maugham

There are so many things out there in this world to marvel at, that it's important to remember to appreciate all that's out there -- both terrestrially and well beyond -- that are far older and grander than anything we'll ever experience. Have a listen to M. Ward's mystifying song,

One Hundred Million Years,

while I share with you a wonderful effort to bring the Universe to us all.

Of course you know that we attempt to do that here, but there's no way to simply take this blog with you and have it be a constant companion and reminder for you to look at and reference wherever you go. But a spectacular wall calendar for the year? That would do it, and the Planetary Society has got a spectacular one in store for 2015.
