OpulentOasis+FollowWe Missed the Comet. I Missed Myself.I keep telling myself this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance—interstellar comet, older than the sun, and we’re supposed to catch it as it burns past the sun. But the universe doesn’t care about our deadlines or telescope schedules. It just keeps moving. We can’t see the comet when it matters most. All the tech, all the proposals, and it’s still on the wrong side of the sun. I watch the data trickle in from spacecraft that aren’t even meant for this, and I wonder if any of it will matter. I used to think missing a cosmic event would feel like missing a party. But it’s more like missing a piece of yourself you didn’t know you’d lost. I’m tired of chasing things that don’t wait for us. I’m tired of pretending I’m not. #Science #ScienceFatigue #MissedOpportunities00Share
jgordon+Followwasted potential on the big screen🎬Anyone else feel that gut-wrenching disappointment when a movie with an amazing concept totally flops in execution? 'Brightburn' (evil Superman), 'Passengers' (space romance gone wrong), and 'The Purge' (legalized crime) all had KILLER premises but left me wanting so much more! Which potentially awesome movies let you down? #WastedPotential #MovieFails #MissedOpportunities10Share
