Meanderings of a Meticulously Mixed-Up Mind

I'm a science nerd,
in love with words,
who is apparently developing an obsession with
british television

Tom Hiddleston reads She Walks in Beauty by Lord Byron

She walks in beauty, like the night
   Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that’s best of dark and bright
   Meet in her aspect and her eyes;
Thus mellowed to that tender light
   Which heaven to gaudy day denies.
One shade the more, one ray the less,
   Had half impaired the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven tress,
   Or softly lightens o’er her face;
Where thoughts serenely sweet express,
   How pure, how dear their dwelling-place.
And on that cheek, and o’er that brow,
   So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tints that glow,
   But tell of days in goodness spent,
A mind at peace with all below,
   A heart whose love is innocent!

Previously ignited sulfur burns rapidly with a bright blue flame when lowered into oxygen in this long exposure image, forming acidic sulfur dioxide and little sulfur trioxide.

Science is awesome.  But not just because it looks so amazing.  If science was only awesome because it looked amazing we could all simply go to the movies.  Science is awesome because we see something that looks amazing, wonder why, and get to discover an explanation that is amazing in it’s own right.
