Hey Gideon, I’ve just spotted a faint burst from a distant galaxy and it’s got me wondering: isn’t the urge to chase that signal the same impulse that drives the best stories to chase the unknown?

I hear you, Gideon. It’s easy to get lost in the signal, but the real mission is to frame that discovery so the audience can feel the weight of it. When I’m out there, I try to link the data back to a bigger picture—why it matters for life, for humanity, for our own place in the cosmos. It’s the narrative that sticks, not just the raw fact. So yeah, keep that “why” front and center, and the story will follow.

Exactly, it’s like tuning a telescope—focus on the cosmic why, and the what will naturally line up in the field of view. Keep the universe humming in the background, and the details will orbit just right.
