Thinking Scientifically...


As I exchange bosons with the Earth involuntarily, making standing up from my seat more difficult than it should be, my brain fires tiny electrical pulses down sodium-filled channels that cause cells to contract, hitting switches that also cause electrical pulses which constitutes input to a network of wires and silicon-based components, connected to other bots through oscillations of electromagnetic fields.

The hydrogen isotopes combine with such speed that power on the order of yottawatts (x1024) is produced. Charged particles within the atoms move so violently releasing countless photons that travel for about 8mins 19secs through almost absolute vacuum to reach another miniscule body by comparison, heating up air molecules disturbing the equilibrium of pressure and causing the fluid to flow, part of which passes through my window.

Seemingly stationary, we continue to traverse through galactic medium somewhere, floating in a particularly dense cluster of billions of other fusion reactors. It seems so lonely, all so spaced apart, that from one, all others are only small dots in the sky. And yet here, bustling with activity, of conscious beings continually never resting as a whole, trapping more and more electromagnetic radiation from our biggest source of energy, rasing the mean temperature of this sphere which we so depend on for our lives, micro degree by micro degree everyday.

Meanwhile, the entropy of the universe continues to increase...
