2. It is hard to believe that we came out of nothing.
The world, all the living surrounding us is so perfect, so
beautiful and complex that it seems more than appropriate
to think about somebody up there drawing us with magic
painting according to a superior plan. Maybe this feeling
of continuous wondering was the reason that drove us
to look up to the skies trying to find out the answer
of our existence.
Last week the sky spoke to us in a very different way:
before, all we could take as source of outer space
information was light, its different colors and the
warmth sent to earth through radiation waves.
Few days ago it was discovered that we can also
hear the universe, just as Albert Einstein
predicted a hundred years ago.
A deep dark vast vault splattered with stars covering us
since the early days. A reality so far and yet so attractive,
a field where distant events took place thousands of
years ago, events that now speak to us traveling along
space in the form of tiny waves leaving traces for us.
The gravitational waves: some of kind whispers on the surface
of space and time shout from the collision of two giant
black holes way back in time, a vibration that could be
the answer to the quest of knowledge regarding the
beginning of the universe. The magic here lies in the fact
that dark does not mean emptiness but a different pattern
of relations between space, matter and time.

SPACE, MATTER
AND TIME
Since the fundamental of light goes
straight to our eyes, the principle
of dark touches us with sound.
Two ways to code our reality
or at least, the sense we have of it.
Now that we know that light and
dark are entangled in the vast universe,
scientists finally would be able to decode
existence as a whole: The theory of
everything.
Maybe we are not yet close to a full
comprehension of universe surrounding
us but, the gravitational waves recently
discovered are telling us that in the future,
we would not need to see in order to believe,
instead we better prepare ourselves to hear
and feel in order to connect to reality.
