Mr. Sagan

"We are stardust, let's prove it being brilliant"


Really was so difficult choose only one scientist that I admire, Servet, Einstein; Nobel or even Elon Musk; but I already wrote about Musk, in Spanish, but doesn´t matter.

Carl Sagan (1934-1996) is the best Science promoter that exist, surely the most recognised thing that he do, is "Cosmos", I´m speaking about the first (are two Cosmos, of Sagan and of de Grasse Tyson), aside from he was a prominent astronomer, astrophysicist and cosmologist; trough the observation of Venus he discovered the global warming in planetary scale.
Also he was a great writer I had the pleasure of read "Pale blue dot. A vision of the human future in space" and is a so beautiful book.
He is the responsible of the idea of put a gold disc in the Voyager I and in the Voyager II with the hope of transmit information about the humans, anyway he was aware that this "message" could be could be difficult to decipher for possible ex- Earth civilizations.
When the Voyager I focused its lens towards the earth, it captured the picture that I show here in which the "pale blue dot" is the earth.
I love his TV show, he teaches us how wonderful the universe can become, and in his words, to know it, for this is the way in which the universe knows itself.

    He is a great scientific promoter, what he did with Cosmos is really important

When I was ten, I wanted study to be a Doctor because I thought that is the only career whit science (I was really wrong xD). The time passed and the studies was not something important, until the last year of primary school I learned in natural sciences related topics with the atoms, atomic models and periodic table, but my favourite topic was definitively; the chemical elements, I remember that we must memorise the first ten elements for a test, but I was so fascinated with the subject that I learn the first thirty-six (Krypton), but in the test I forgotten the seventeen element (Chlorine), since then I never forgot this element. In the high school the idea to be a Doctor still chasing after me, but I continued loving the chemistry, it was no until the last year of high school that a classmate tell me the idea of study chemistry and pharmacy. When I left the high school my NEM was so sad and I  realized that study physician definitely isn´t a option, so now it was easier to de...

Pharmacy is (not) perfect

Currently I have seven subjects; General Chemistry II, Differential and Integral calculus, Electromagnetism, General Biology, The medicament and their evolution, General chemistry laboratory and English (the most boring in my opinion cof cof) and I have to say that I think that the workload is moderate, in the week, I have as minimum, three evaluations (seminary controls and laboratory controls) but my scheme is nasty and no because I choose it bad, all the second semester schedules are nasty; and the next semester (if all is good) I will have; Organic Chemistry, Analytic Chemistry, Cellular Physiology, Organic Chemistry laboratory; among others; that is to say; will be worse. And, like little, we have not a dining room (anexo is not a dining room >:^( ), and the library always is full of talking people, BUT other sites, like study rooms of the tottus are ok. About the laboratories is different, because always have reactives and although the precipitate glass, essay tubes and o...

Turkey, like turkey

An old and forgotten city between Europe and the middle east, between the black sea and the Aegean sea, in the Bosphorus, is Istanbul. Isn´t a country, but is a city in a country, that I would like to go, Turkey. Is a ancient country that was the territory of the Byzantine empire and later, of the Turkish empire (dah), Who brought with it, the official religion, Islam. In the ancient this place, controls the trade of goods from Asia and India to Europe; and the control of this region by the Turkish, caused the discovery of America. Personally I would like live in Istanbul or Edessa, ancient cities full of history. Is for this reason that I love this country, the history, so much things happened there, the biggest empires of the earth fought there for this strategic zone, Greeks, Persians, Assyrians, Romans, Saracens. The people that was there builds immense buildings, mosques, bridges, among others. I would like live or work in this place BUT exist a little problem, the...
