Old Ben

I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by;
And the wheel’s kick and the wind’s song and the white sail’s shaking,
And a grey mist on the sea’s face and a grey dawn breaking.

I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide
Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;
And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.

I must go down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life,
To the gull’s way and the whale’s way where the wind’s like a whetted knife;
And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover,
And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick’s over.

una de las cosas que mas me fascinan de Star Trek es la imagen que lograron del futuro, que es consistente a lo largo de casi todas las series y películas. Pero el detalle que mas me gusta es la estacion táctica del Enterprise D, con ese hermoso marco de madera.

Stephen Hawking: ...but then I said, "In that frame of reference, the perihelion of Mercury would have precessed in the opposite direction."

Albert Einstein: jejejeje, that is a great story.

Data: Quite amusing Doctor Hawking. You see, Sir Isaac, the joke depends on an understanding of the relativistic curvature of space-time. If two non-inertial reference frames are in relative motion...

Sir Isaac Newton: Do not patronize me, sir, I invented physics. The day the apple fell on my head was the most momentous day in the history of science.

Stephen Hawking: Not the apple story again!
