Quotes About Space

God's best work occurs in the margins. If we have the courage to step into that wide-open space, God will meet us there.
~ Unknown
In our laps, the margins are clear and tidy. Three-fourths of an inch on the left and right padding, two inches below, and one inch on top. The clarity provides room for creativity. The structure offers space. But why is it in our lives those blank spaces are so much harder to find? And when we do find them, instead of breathing in that sacred space, why are we so much more likely to fill in that place?
~ Unknown
A brane is a distinct region of spacetime that extends through only a (possibly multidimensional) slice of space. The word "membrane" motivated the choice of the word "brane" because membranes, like branes, are layers that either surround or run through a substance.
~ Lisa Randall
Some branes are "slices" inside the space, but others are "slices" that bound space, like slices of bread in a sandwich. Either way, a brane is a domain that has fewer dimensions than the full higher-dimensional space that surrounds or borders it.
~ Lisa Randall
we currently live in a region—300 light-years across—called the Local Bubble, which is a vacuum-like domain with very low hydrogen density within the interstellar medium in the Orion Arm of the Milky Way.
~ Lisa Randall
When a field takes a nonzero value, the best way to think about it is to imagine space manifesting the charge that the field carries, but not containing any actual particles.
~ Lisa Randall
Perhaps a quarter of meteoroid impacts have led to potentially profitable deposits—at least half of which have already been exploited.
~ Lisa Randall
They tell us remarkable things, such as that extra dimensions can be infinite in size yet remain unseen, or that we can be living in a three-spatial-dimensional sinkhole in a higher-dimensional universe.
~ Lisa Randall
A space of a particular dimension is a space requiring a particular number of quantities to specify a point.
~ Lisa Randall
She felt surrounded by the space, ever expanding space, and she was a tiny atom, not separate, but part of a whole, a glistening three-dimensional web, full of movement and energy.
~ Unknown
The bright sun was extinguish'd, and the stars Did wander darkling in the eternal space.
~ Unknown
Once I found out the secret of the universe. I have forgotten what it was, but I know that the Creator does not take Creation seriously, for I remember that He sat in Space with all His work in front of Him and laughed.
~ Lord Dunsany
The venture into space is meaningless unless it coincides with a certain interior expansion, an ever-growing universe within, to correspond with the far flight of the galaxies our telescopes follow from without.
~ Loren Eiseley
contar historias es justamente esto: encontrar la conexión que logra reunir a los seres humanos más allá del tiempo y el espacio
~ Unknown
A spider reaches the liberty of space by means of its own thread.
~ Jhumpa Lahiri
The stars are beautiful—diamonds, twinkles, something you can wish upon. The space in between the stars is the sublime—cold, black, and infinite, something that inspires awe and fear.
~ Jill Ciment
During her lectures, she explains the difference between the beautiful and the sublime this way: The stars are beautiful—diamonds, twinkles, something you can wish upon. The space in between the stars is the sublime—cold, black, and infinite, something that inspires awe and fear.

Come home with me tonight, Becca. She stared at him for a long beat. You don't like people in your space. I don't, he said. But you're not people.
~ Jill Shalvis
Arousal and embarrassment warred for space inside her, but she managed both with equal aplomb—she was nothing if not an excellent multitasker. "How long have you been there?
~ Jill Shalvis
Let me first make two important assumptions, which I will discuss in more detail later on, but will now just say that they are both supported strongly by observational evidence: (1) that the laws of physics are the same everywhere in our universe, and (2) that space looks the same in all directions (the same density and distribution of galaxies).
~ Jim Al-Khalili
When it comes to the meaning of space and time the difficulty we have is not surprising, for we are ourselves imprisoned within them, and it is hard to free our minds from their confines and 'see' reality from the outside.
~ Jim Al-Khalili
The Carpenters had a threshold more solid and extensive than the Great Wall of China. I would not be in the least bit surprised if you could see it from space.
~ Jim Butcher
The Black Hole?" Grey asked, incredulously. "Nobody quotes The Black Hole, Dresden. Nobody even remembers that one." "Hogwash. Ernest Borgnine, Anthony Perkins, and Roddy McDowall all in the same movie? Immortality.
