...chucked sin but taken on cosmic guilt, including the ultimate guilt: feeling guilty about not feeling more guilty...
...essays are formal and abstract. They redefine polities as an endeavor to reconcile the maximum amount of personal honor with group solidarity. In a more cosmic sense, they re-evaluate citizenship and dissent in conceiving man as a striver for moaning through politics. Despite lapses into existentialist jargon. Walzer's "political journalism." belongs to the most lucid order of scholarship...
...SQUARE is made for cosmic laughs. Jugglers and jackanapes, mountebanks and missionaries, charlatans and saints, revelations and rip offs contend for your attention. This summer promises to be cataclysmic in and around the Square. This article is humbly offered as an aid to the physical layout of the area- and a warning against a few of the more blatant institutional ripoffs...
...though his eyes were closed. "I think I'm going out of my mind," Aldrin told Neil Armstrong. While Armstrong and other astronauts confirmed the mysterious flashes, NASA scientists were at first inclined to attribute them to an optical quirk. Now they have proposed a more plausible explanation: cosmic rays. Though only some of these high-speed particles-mostly protons-manage to break through the shield of the earth's magnetic field, they can easily penetrate the eyelids of a space traveler, pass through the eye fluid and strike the retina. At times, they may even...
Until the discovery of complex interstellar molecules, astronomers were convinced that ultraviolet radiation and cosmic rays would quickly disintegrate any stray organic molecules that might form in deep space. Now they know that such molecules-which are essential to terrestrial life-can survive between the stars, apparently shielded by nebular dust. Indeed, Radio Astronomer David Buhl, one of those who found formaldehyde last year, thinks that organic molecules exist in considerable abundance in interstellar space. If so, he says, "life similar to ours" may well have evolved elsewhere among the 100 billion stars of the Milky...
