Everyone else catches up with you. They can do what you do better than you or cheaper than you. And in a multinational corporate-free market enterprise, it is the company\u2019s obligation to take the factory to a place where they can make it more cheaply.<\/p> There is always a place I can take someone\u2019s curiosity and land where they end up enlightened when we\u2019re done. That\u2019s my challenge as an educator. No one is dumb who is curious. The people who don\u2019t ask questions remain clueless throughout their lives.<\/p> Kids should be allowed to break stuff more often. That\u2019s a consequence of exploration. Exploration is what you do when you don\u2019t know what you\u2019re doing. That\u2019s what scientists do every day.<\/p> When an industry matures, it means it\u2019s not advancing, and of course the jobs go overseas. That\u2019s the obligation of the multi-national corporation: to put the factory where it can make the widget as cheap as possible. Don\u2019t get angry when a corporation does that; we\u2019ve all bought into this concept. We live in a capitalistic society.<\/p> Some asteroids have us in their sights. Be nice to sort of go near them and find out what they\u2019re made of, possibly tag their ears so they\u2019re always broadcasting to us their location. In case one of their trajectories head straight for us, we\u2019ll know well in advance to do something about it.<\/p> I have a personal philosophy in life: If somebody else can do something that I\u2019m doing, they should do it. And what I want to do is find things that would represent a unique contribution to the world \u2013 the contribution that only I, and my portfolio of talents, can make happen. Those are my priorities in life.<\/p> Carl Sagan spoke fluently between biology and geology and astrophysics and physics. If you move fluently across those boundaries, you realize that science is everywhere; science is not something you can step around or sweep under the rug.<\/p> There\u2019s a lot to do in space. I want to learn more about the greenhouse effect on Venus, about whether there was life on Mars, about the environment in which Earth and the Sun is immersed, the behavior of the Sun.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Venus has a runaway greenhouse effect. I kind of want to know what happened there because we\u2019re twirling knobs here on Earth without knowing the consequences of it. Mars once had running water. It\u2019s bone dry today. Something bad happened there as well. The universe is hilarious! Like, Venus is 900 degrees. I could tell you it melts lead. But that\u2019s not as fun as saying, \u2018You can cook a pizza on the windowsill in nine seconds.\u2019 And next time my fans eat pizza, they\u2019re thinking of Venus!
