#excerpt 🟰
Not everyone sees the beauty of math
or understands the treasures that they find.
Few know the delights of a chalkboard, full,
reduced to one elegant line, at last,
or explanation of gravity’s pull,
or finding how those things with heft amassed.

EXOGENETIC DESELECTION
The first interplanetary hybrid was created to avoid restrictions imposed by The Federation upon the transportation and trade of tribbles, but Trabbits® were a “haribble” idea.

I've read that one in three astro-photographs now sport Elon Musk's autographic streaks.
Is this the price of progress¿ or just one billionaire pushing would-be astrophotographers aside?
