Light Up My Day Poetry by George J. Carroll
Poetry came to George late in life as over 1200 of his poems were written in the last 3 1/2 years. It was then that he joined a poetry den and with encouragement from the many poets that reviewed his poems his poetry flourished. His poems are diversified and touch on almost every aspect of life. Though his poems are not lengthy they leave one with an inspirational message that can warm one’s heart...

Have six children, six grand children, and eight great grand children.. My wife Florence died in 1995. We had 49 wonderful years together. I am working on my fourth book of poetry but it will not be completed until around July of 2008 10 Stellar Facts for Astronomy Buffs Astronomy holds a lifetime of fascination for observers of the heavens. Astronomer and author Jay Pasachoff shares ten stellar facts of interest to amateur astronomers and scientists alike. 1. Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune all have rings. 2. The Sun is middle-aged; it's halfway through its 10-billion-year lifetime. 3. Astronomers think that all of the normal matter in the universe makes up only about 5 percent of the contents of the universe. Dark matter is thought to make up about 25 percent, and a strange form of energy known as the cosmological constant is thought to make up the remaining 70 percent. 4. As a result of the greenhouse effect, Earth's average temperature is comfortable rather than freezing, and Venus is a horrid place, hot enough to melt lead. 5. Pulsars are dead stars that have collapsed. Some spin around in as little as 1/500 second, pretty fast for a body that contains as much mass as the Sun. 6. The Sun--as big as it seems to those of us on Earth--is actually on the small side for a star. It's a dwarf star; giants and supergiants are much larger, and neutron stars are even smaller. 7. Earth's galaxy, the Milky Way, contains about 400 billion stars. That's not all: There are hundreds of billions of other galaxies in the universe, some of which are much larger and contain many more stars than the Milky Way. 8. Wherever you are in the universe, distant clusters of galaxies seem to move away from you. The farther away they are, the faster they recede. This leads many astronomers to believe that the universe is expanding. 9. Astronomers have discovered dozens of planets orbiting stars other than the Sun. We know of many more planets outside our solar system than inside.
