hey, what's that?


I remember my first glimpse of the Grand Canyon. It's something everyone should see in a late-afternoon or early-morning light. It's a wonder that seems impossible on Earth. This video, and project, is only the second time I've ever felt that why - and I'm only watching on a computer. The process of pondering the science and technology behind this success is almost too much to comprehend. The idea that this could, or would, ever work must have seemed overwhelming. Fucking amazing. What must it have been like when Edith was called in to 'take a look at something'?

The full documentary is on Discovery on Sunday night. Do. Not. Disturb.
