摘要

Time CAN REALLY PLAYwith your head while stargazing. On a clear evening in August, I gave my 83-year-old mother a brief tour of the heavens over the dark-sky stretch of Maine coast where she lives. The transparency and seeing were superb, and the Milky Way threw a broad, diffuse stripe down the middle of the firmament. I was thinking what a long, interesting life she has led and how far back 1932, the year she was born, stands from us today. It was the heart of the Great Depression. Amelia Earhart flew the Atlantic solo. Mahatma Gandhi went on a hunger strike against British laws in India. For me, events like these hover in the dim mists of world history.
