Don Brownlee
“The prediction was that we would get a dozen particles larger than human hair size and one particle a little bit larger than a millimeter.”
“We saw many, many, many comet particles that were big enough to see with the naked eye.”
“For everything exists and not one sigh nor smile nor tear, one hair nor particle of dust, not one can pass away.”
William Blake
