Great Astronomers - Get a HUGE Bang Outta THIS !

This man and i are not in full agreement, but this does not in
any way detract one iota from his eternal greatness.

BTW, i believe he is one of Bert's eternal favorites, too!

starry starry nights!

Yes, Gamow probably did as much to influence my view of the universe as
Einstein. The story of his personal life is interesting too: his
having to work under the Stalin regime at a time when physicists were
being purged for as little a thing as making a joke. His escape to the
west was fortunate.

Of course all these ideas are subject to constant reexamination, and I
think that's the way all truly great minds would want it.

Double-A

Hi Painius Right you are Gamow was one of my early ideals. I think
about him very often. I post his name in regards to the big bang. He
was my kind of guy. A great thinker,with a great sense of humor. He
laughed out loud. He made people laugh. Bert
