“In other words, it's the perfect experiment. I mean, you blow something up and then catch every particle and explain where everything went. It sounds like an impossible thing!”
William McCurdy
“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.”
Donald Brownlee
“For everything exists and not one sigh nor smile nor tear, one hair nor particle of dust, not one can pass away.”
William Blake
“If I could remember the names of all these particles, I'd be a botanist.”
Enrico Fermi
“Enthusiasm is the divine particle in our composition: with it we are great, generous, and true; without it, we are little, false, and mean.”
Letitia Landon
“Once the water comes out it freezes, and that produces copious amounts of ice particles.”
Carolyn Porco
“Each of the satellites in the solar system are pummeled by interplanetary dust particles, or meteoroids which are marble-sized or millimeter-sized objects, ... When those hit a satellite, or moon, at high speeds, they slam into the surface and blast a crater, and all sorts of particles fly off. That's what is happening at Ganymede, and we think that's what's happening at all the satellites in the solar system.”
Douglas Hamilton
