Feynman – Tycho’s Island
Ξ June 13th, 2008 | → 1 Comments | ∇ Mumble, Science |
After listening to Feynman’s lectures on Physics for so many years, I finally, today, remembered to look up where Tycho Brahe lived … in one of his lectures Feynman says something like, in the context of Brahe; “he lived on an Island, whose name was very good, but I can’t remember it now“.
Well, the Island’s name is Hven [was Feynman thinking Heaven - I think so], and I’m determined to go there.
However, I was also determined to go and see Checkpoint Charlie, but didn’t, and I was also determined to go to Hong Kong before it was handed back to the Chinese – but didn’t. So, I’ll maybe go to Hven one of these days – for sure!
