We can continue to try and clean up the gutters all over the world and spend all of our resources
looking at just the dirty spots and trying to make them clean. Or we can lift our eyes up and look
into the skies and move forward in an evolutionary way.

An American astronomer and the founder of extragalactic astronomy. He was fascinated by science and mysterious new worlds from an early age. Hubble had also devised a classification system for the various galaxies he observed, sorting them by shape, content, distance and brightness. He noticed redshifts in the emission of light from the galaxies. He observed that they were moving away from each other at a rate constant to the distance between them. These observations contributed to formulating Hubble's Law in 1929,
helping astronomers determine the age of the universe, and proving that the universe is expanding all the time. (1889-1953)
