Nature, 1878 THIS work treats with exhaustive thoroughness a question first raised about a century ago, as early, in fact, as advancing political liberty rendered its public discussion consistent with personal safety, and which has occupied scientific biographers pretty continuously since that time. The author's main object in reopening an issue, which the majority

The timing coincides with the 400th anniversary of the first astronomical use of a telescope, when Galileo's observations demonstrated that the Earth is not alone in the Universe. One can hardly think of a more important event in the history of mankind.

The Once and Future Hydrology Is Whole Earth Hydrology
Perspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 6, Issue 1, December 2025.Abstract We here argue for a new paradigm to advance pursuit of truth in global freshwater science. Our proposed Whole Earth Hydrology is hydrology that is explicitly empirical and discovery‐based, grounded in primary data, detailed at scale, and incorporates humans as essential.
