Your Heritage! What is the First Book You Remember>?
For me 1965 "Things in which is it impossible for God to lie."
Don't see "Babylon the Great has Fallen, God's Kingdom Rules."
That book was before the "Impossible to Lie book" - Bible Speaks -

Too many Satellites in Space? Is that called "space garbage" or "overload"?
Confusion and air is in fact "polluted". Can that effect out brains and bodies? Yes of course! ????
As we gear up for an era where space travel becomes more common thanks to the efforts of companies like Richard Branson’s Virgin Galactic and Elon MuskÂ’s SpaceX, territory that was unchartered just a few decades ago could soon become commonplace.
Even those of us with no interest in traveling to space have come to rely on The Final Frontier more so than ever before, thanks to an increasing number of services that rely on satellites orbiting the Earth. Cell phones and in-dash navigation systems rely on GPS satellites, Dish and DirecTV obviously use satellite feeds, and satellite communications systems offered by the likes of Inmarsat and Iridium continue to proliferate across various industries.
Just how crowded is it getting up there above the EarthÂ’s atmosphere?
The answer: Pretty crowded.
Vala Afshar, chief marketing officer of network infrastructure company Extreme Networks, recently posted a fascinating image on Twitter. Simply put, the image shows every single satellite in space that is currently orbiting Earth, in one graphic.
The picture speaks for itself:
We need GodÂ’s Kingdom! Let it come! Matthew 6:10.

Maintain Loyalty With a Unified Heart
“I shall walk in your truth. Unify my heart to fear your name.”—(PS. 86:11)
????????
WHY do some Christians who remain faithful for years despite imprisonment or persecution later succumb to materialism? The answer has to do with our figurative heart—what we really are inside. 
????????
The 86th Psalm connects loyalty to a unified heart; that is, a complete heart, one that is not divided. “O do guard my soul, for I am loyal,” prayed the psalmist David. “Save your servant—you are my God—that is trusting in you.” David also prayed: “Instruct me, O Jehovah, about your way. I shall walk in your truth. Unify my heart to fear your name.”— (Ps. 86:2, 11)
????????
Unless we trust in Jehovah with all our heart, other concerns and affections will undermine our loyalty to the true God. Selfish desires are like land mines hidden under the road we walk on. 
????????
Even though we may have remained faithful to Jehovah under trying circumstances, we can fall victim to satanic traps or snares. 
????????
How vital it is that we cultivate heartfelt loyalty to Jehovah now, before tests or temptations come upon us! “More than all else that is to be guarded,” says the Bible, “safeguard your heart.” (Prov. 4:23)
????????
Each day, we are confronted with choices and decisions that test our loyalty. We too can prove ourselves faithful. Let us always remain loyal to Jehovah as we unify our heart, fully confident that he will continue to bless his loyal ones.
????????
(2 Samuel 22:26)
26 With someone loyal you will act in loyalty, With the faultless, mighty one you will deal faultlessly."- Bible Speaks -

Some of his observations that are remembered:
— "We are just an advanced breed of monkeys on a minor planet of a very average star. But we can understand the universe. That makes us something very special."
— "Life would be tragic if it weren't funny."
— "The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge."
— "For millions of years, mankind lived just like the animals. Then something happened which unleashed the power of our imagination. We learned to talk and we learned to listen. Speech has allowed the communication of ideas, enabling human beings to work together to build the impossible. Mankind's greatest achievements have come about by talking, and its greatest failures by not talking. It doesn't have to be like this. Our greatest hopes could become reality in the future. With the technology at our disposal, the possibilities are unbounded. All we need to do is make sure we keep talking."
— "My goal is simple. It is a complete understanding of the universe, why it is as it is and why it exists at all."
— "I believe the simplest explanation is, there is no God. No one created the universe and no one directs our fate. This leads me to a profound realization that there probably is no heaven and no afterlife either. We have this one life to appreciate the grand design of the universe and for that, I am extremely grateful."
— "Although I cannot move and I have to speak through a computer, in my mind I am free."
— "If aliens ever visit us, I think the outcome would be much as when Christopher Columbus first landed in America, which didn't turn out very well for the Native Americans."
— "We are in danger of destroying ourselves by our greed and stupidity. We cannot remain looking inwards at ourselves on a small and increasingly polluted and overcrowded planet."
— "My disabilities have not been a significant handicap in my field, which is theoretical physics. Indeed, they have helped me in a way by shielding me from lecturing and administrative work that I would otherwise have been involved in. I have managed, however, only because of the large amount of help I have received from my wife, children, colleagues and students. I find that people in general are very ready to help, but you should encourage them to feel that their efforts to aid you are worthwhile by doing as well as you possibly can."

It is not so amazing that the Dancing Bear dances well ..... but that it dances at all.

He was truly a magnificent man, doing what he could do .... and DID do ... with his crushing disabilities.
One of the very few really deserving  Media Superstars.
I had six copies of his book,  "A Brief History of Time", to give to others, as I REALLY appreciated how he kept himself alive  through sheer willpower all those many years, and it renewed my interest in Quantum Physics and Cosmology.
I re-read it about every six years.
He was wrong about the "arrow of time" in his book .... time does not reverse when the Universe supposedly would collapse unto the "Big Crunch", which really lets the air out of his book ... but it is still a magnificent read.
Completely outdated ... but a A MUST READ book, nonetheless.

There is a saying:
Ô”There is no atheist in a fox hole.” Perhaps when he returns to this earth in the New World he will continue to see Our Grand Creator and Instructor? Religion has damaged so many minds. Even a genius can not phantom Jehovah God. Knowledge is a gift from Our Creator. Jehovah reads hearts. We know those who die will have a New Hope to really know Who Jehovah God is, Our God of Miracles and the heavens and earth! - Bible Speaks - 
Quote from News Source continues:
In the past, there's been a tiny bit of ambiguity: In "A Brief History of Time," Hawking writes that the discovery of a unifying set of scientific principles known as the theory of everything would enable scientists to "know the mind of God." But in a follow-up book about the quest for the theory of everything, titled "The Grand Design," Hawking said the mechanism behind the origin of the universe was becoming so well known that God was no longer necessary.
El Mundo's Pablo Jauregui asked about those two references to God in one of the questions he prepared for Hawking to answer, and here's the scientist's response:
"Before we understand science, it is natural to believe that God created the universe. But now science offers a more convincing explanation. What I meant by 'we would know the mind of God' is, we would know everything that God would know, if there were a God, which there isn't. I'm an atheist."
Hawking addressed the issue more delicately several years ago when he told Reuters that he was "not religious in the normal sense," and said "God does not intervene to break the laws" that He decreed. Since then, however, there's been a lot more theorizing devoted to the origin of the universe. Hawking now believes that an approach known as M-theory will eventually reveal the grand design of the cosmos.
"In my opinion, there is no aspect of reality beyond the reach of the human mind," Hawking told El Mundo. https://www.nbcnews.com/science/space/im-atheist-stephen-hawking-god-space-travel-n210076
 

Stephen Hawking, British physicist and author, dies at 76
Stephen Hawking, who beat the odds his entire life, died peacefully at his home in Cambridge, England, early Wednesday, a family spokesman said in a statement.
Hawking was as famous for his insights on black holes, the existence of God and quantum gravity as he was for using a special device to speak while confined to a wheelchair after an ALS diagnosis at age 21.
Hawking gave the world insights into the unknown and several gems of quotes, including, "Life would be tragic if it weren't funny." https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/british-physicist-stephen-hawking-among-world-s-greatest-minds-science-n702301?cid=eml_nbn_20180314

DO YOU WANT TO LIVE FOREVER?
???????
"As for the tree of the knowledge of good and bad, you must not eat from it, for in the day you eat from it you will certainly die.” Genesis 2:17.
Man’s habitation on earth is also permanent. When God gave man the law regarding the tree of the knowledge of good and bad, he implied that man could live on earth forever. (Ge 2:17) 
We are assured by Jehovah’s own words that “all the days the earth continues, seed sowing and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night, will never cease” (Ge 8:22) and that he will never destroy all flesh again by a flood. (Ge 9:12-16) 
Jehovah says that he did not make the earth for nothing but, rather, that he has given it to men as a home and that death will eventually be done away with. God’s purpose, therefore, is for the earth to be the habitation of man in perfection and happiness with eternal life.—Ps 37:11; 115:16; Isa 45:18; Re 21:3, 4. - Bible Speaks -

"Everyone who calls on the name of Jehovah will be saved."—Rom. 10:13.
Perhaps the first time you saw Jehovah’s name was when it was shown to you at Psalm 83:18. You may have been surprised to read those words: “That people may know that you, whose name is Jehovah, you alone are the Most High over all the earth.” Since then, you no doubt have used this same scripture to help others come to know our loving God, Jehovah. Although it is important for people to know Jehovah’s name, such knowledge in itself is not enough. 
Notice how the psalmist highlights yet another truth essential to our salvation when he says: “You alone are the Most High over all the earth.” Yes, Jehovah is the most important Person in the whole universe. As the Creator of all things, he has the right to expect full submission from all his creatures. (Rev. 4:11) 
For good reason, then, we need to ask ourselves, ‘Who is the most important person in my life?’ It is vital that we carefully analyze our answer to that question!

Can’t see Our Lord Christ wearing a tee shirt ? 
Its a distraction to keep our balance! ??
Don’t Give Up!! 

"You must not follow after the crowd for evil ends." Ö (Ex. 23:2)
In taking a long journey, what would you do if you felt unsure about which way to go? You might feel tempted to follow other travelers—especially if you saw a great many making the same choice. Such a course is risky. After all, those travelers may not be heading toward your destination, or they too may be lost. 
 
In this connection, consider a principle that underlies one of the laws given to ancient Israel. Those who served as judges or as witnesses in judicial matters were warned of the danger of ‘following after the crowd.’ 
 
Without doubt, it is all too easy for imperfect humans to bow to peer pressure, perverting justice. However, is the principle about not following the crowd restricted to judicial matters? Not at all. In truth, the pressure to “follow after the crowd” can affect us at almost any time. It may arise suddenly, and it can be very difficult to resist. - Bible Speaks -
WHOS YOUR LEADER? ?

‘The Hour of JudgmentÂ’ Has Arrived! - HOW TO GET AWAY SAFE! ~
REVELATION, the last book of the Bible, alerts us to the fact that an angel flying in midheaven has “everlasting good news to declare as glad tidings.” He says in a loud voice: “Fear God and give him glory, because the hour of the judgment by him has arrived.” (Revelation 14:6, 7) That ‘hour of judgment’ includes both the pronouncement and the execution of divine judgment. An “hour” is a relatively short period of time. It comes as the climax of “the last days.” We live in that time now.—2 Timothy 3:1.
The arrival of ‘the hour of judgment’ is good news to lovers of righteousness. It is a time when God will bring relief to his servants, who have suffered at the hands of this violent, loveless system of things.
Now, before ‘the hour of judgment’ concludes with the destruction of the present wicked system of things, we are urged: “Fear God and give him glory.” Are you doing that? This involves far more than saying, “I believe in God.” (Matthew 7:21-23; James 2:19, 20) Proper fear of God should make us stand in awe of him. It should cause us to turn away from badness. (Proverbs 8:13) It should help us to love what is good and hate what is bad. (Amos 5:14, 15)
If we honor God, we will listen to him with great respect. We will not be too busy with other things to read his Word, the Bible, regularly. We will trust in him at all times and with our whole heart. (Psalm 62:8; Proverbs 3:5, 6) Those who truly honor him recognize that as the Creator of heaven and earth, he is the Universal Sovereign, and they lovingly submit to him as the Sovereign of their lives. If we realize that we ought to give more attention to these matters, let us do so without delay.

Beautiful Jaguar Created by Jehovah God! Amazing Creatures! I’d love to pet one, one day to know IÂ’m safe! His Promise! 
????? 
This year's focus is on big cats so I thought I'd share a clip of this big male jaguar taking a drink at sunset. During the dry season in Brazil's Pantanal, the jaguars stick close to the rivers. Not only do these rivers provide drinking water, they also concentrate the jaguar's primary prey- capybara and caiman. As a result, the best way to observe them is by boat. This gives an added benefit for filming as you can use the boat as a giant camera slider to create movement in the shot. Using a gyrostabilised rig and an electric motor, my boatman and I were able to smoothly (and almost silently) glide past giving the shot this rotation. Shot for a @natgeowild jaguar show.

Why Jellyfish Float Like a Butterfly—And Sting Like a Bee | Deep Look ~ ???
Jellyfish donÂ’t have a heart, or blood, or even a brain. TheyÂ’ve survived five mass extinctions. And you can find them in every ocean, from pole to pole. WhatÂ’s their secret? Keeping it simple, but with a few dangerous tricks.
DEEP LOOK: a new ultra-HD (4K) short video series created by KQED San Francisco and presented by PBS Digital Studios. See the unseen at the very edge of our visible world. Get a new perspective on our place in the universe and meet extraordinary new friends. Explore big scientific mysteries by going incredibly small.
--- Why do Jellyfish Sting?
Jellyfish sting to paralyze their prey. They use special cells called nematocysts. Jellyfish donÂ’t have a brain or a central nervous system to control these stinging cells, so each one has itÂ’s own trip wire, called a cnidocil.
When triggered, the nematocyst cells act like a combination of fishing hook and hypodermic needle. They fire a barb into the flesh of the jellyfish’s prey at 10,000 times the force of gravity – making it one of the fastest mechanisms in the animal kingdom. As the barb latches on, a thread-like filament bathed in toxin erupts from the barb and delivers the poison.
The nematocyst only works if the barb can penetrate the skin, which is why some jellies are more dangerous to humans than others. The smooth-looking tentacles of a sea anemone (a close relative of jellies that also has nematocyst cells) feel like sandpaper to the touch. Their nematocysts are firing, but the barbs arenÂ’t powerful enough to puncture your skin.
