James Webbs discoverys
On Christmas Day last year (2021), I sat in front of my computer and watched the Ariane-5 rocket lift the new space telescope, James Webb, up into the sky.

This is the End
There cannot be a meaning of life, there cannot be a goal in existence, there cannot be a purpose to the world. No fantasy or dream can create a meaning, a goal, or a purpose, but we never stop searching because the search keeps us alive. How can anyone see meaning in atrocities and wars, […]

Vikingarna, som när det begav sig för drygt 1000 år sedan, mördade och massakrerade försvarslösa män, kvinnor […]
