Looking outward to the blackness of space, sprinkled with the glory of a universe of lights, I saw majesty -- but no welcome. Below was a welcoming planet. There, contained in the thin, moving, incredibly fragile shell of the biosphere is everything that is dear to you, all the human drama and comedy. That's where life is; that's were all the good stuff is.
