Maya Shepherd
“Jeden Tag habe ich mich in der Sicherheitszone danach gesehnt, den Himmel, die Sterne oder lebende Pflanzen zu sehen. […] Durch ihre Glasfenster können sie jeden Tag die Sonne beim Auf- und Untergehen beobachten. Sie können die Sterne zählen, wenn sie wollen, und dem Mond dabei zusehen, wie er zu- und wieder abnimmt. Warum haben sie uns unter der Erde eingesperrt, während sie selbst die Fenster weit aufreißen und ihre Lungen mit frischer Luft füllen konnten? Warum haben sie das nie mit uns geteilt? Warum haben sie uns belogen?”
Maya Shepherd, Die Verstoßenen

“One of the most striking results of modern investigation has been the way in which several different and quite independent lines of evidence indicate that a very great event occurred about two thousand million years ago. The radio-active evidence for the age of meteorites; and the estimated time for the tidal evolution of the Moon's orbit (though this is much rougher), all agree in their testimony, and, what is far more important, the red-shift in the nebulae indicates that this date is fundamental, not merely in the history of our system, but in that of the material universe as a whole.”
Henry Norris Russell
