A page devoted to whatever seems to be of interest to me. (Yes, I know it's narcissistic, but isn't that one of the great benefits of the Internet and self-publishing?)
Hello. Welcome to The Kuiper Belt, a place for news and musings that are of interest primarily to.....well.....me! You may be wondering about the title of this space, The Kuiper Belt. "The Kuiper Belt is a disk-shaped region past the orbit of Neptune extending roughly from 30 to 50 AU from the Sun containing many small icy bodies. It is now considered to be the source of the short-period comets" (http://www.nineplanets.org/kboc.html). Essentially, it is a region of space from which objects seem to be drawn at random. It's way out there and doesn't always seem relevant, but it has the potential for serious impact. I hope you find the postings of interest, and please feel free to comment. (Comments are moderated).
I've created this as an experiment in mixing spoken word with music in Audacity. Vivaldi can take credit for the music, but the photo and poem are mine. Click on the "Fossil Poem" icon above to hear the audio.
