Stirone has an opinion piece in today's online New York Times promoting NASA.
Discussing the Hubble Space Telescope, she claims that . . .
"Hubble peers deep into space, patiently collecting the universe’s traveling light,
then delivering it to us in never before seen images: galaxies, supernovas and
nebulae. It is a time machine. And without it we wouldn’t know we are inside
a galaxy that is just one of possibly trillions."
