There's this sort of anthropomorphizing that inherently happens in language that really gets me sometimes. I'm still not over the terminology of "gravity assist," the technique where we launch satellites into the orbit of other planets so that we can build momentum via the astounding and literally astronomical strength of their gravitational forces, to "slingshot" them into the direction we need with a speed that we could never, ever, ever create ourselves. I mean, some of these slingshots easily get probes hurtling through space at tens of thousands of miles per hour. Wikipedia has a handy diagram of the Voyager 1 satellite doing such a thing.

"Gravity assist." "Slingshot." Of course, on a very basic and objective level, yes, we are taking advantage of forces generated by outside objects to specifically help in our goals. We're getting help from objects in the same way a river can power a mill. And of course we call it a "slingshot," because the motion is very similar (mentally at least; I can't be sure about the exact physics).

Plus, especially compared to the other sciences, the terminology for astrophysics is like, really straightforward. "Black hole?" Damn yeah it sure is. "Big bang?" It sure was. "Galactic cluster?" Buddy you're never gonna guess what this is. I think it's an effect of the fact that language is generally developed for life on earth and all the strange variances that happen on its surface, that applying it to something as alien and vast as space, general terms tend to suffice very well in a lot more places than, like... idk, botany.

But, like. "Gravity assist." I still can't get the notion out of my head that such language implies us receiving active help from our celestial neighbors. They come to our aid. We are working together. We are assisted. Jupiter and the other planets saw our little messengers coming from its pale blue molecular cousin, and we set up the physics just right, so that they could help us send them out to far stranger places than this, to tell us all about what they find out there.

We are assisted.

And there is no better way to illustrate my feelings on the matter than to just show you guys one of my favorite paintings, this 1973 NASA art by Rick Guidice to show the Pioneer probe doing this exact thing:

"... You, sent out beyond your recall, go to the limits of your longing. Embody me. ..."

Gravity assist.

' art of movement '

if you see close enough, everything dances to the rhythm of movement. the clouds whirl around the expanse of sky, the leaves dangle as the air swirls around them, the rain pitter-patters on the ground, lights flickers blink and blink, water dances underneath the moonlit sky, the sun creep from east to west, fingers tap on the windowsill, hands swing intertwined, eyes blink the language of love, lips hum to the sound of radio, tears stream down, heart thrums. and there's a moment of serenity in it. when actions speak to the words that can't be coherent, when the water ripples resemble that of heartbeats, when hands sit in the laps conjoined, when sun rises with hopes and rests with stories that couldn't be complete. when the world steadies a rhythmic uniform. there's a art of movement in everything, if seen close enough.

ART: Art of Movement

A. Grinberg (?) :: Ornamental plastic pose, mid-1920s. Artist’s photographic print. Catalogue of the third “Art of Movement” exhibition, 1927, No. 277. OE | src Nicoletta Misler's The Russian Art of Movement 1920-1930 (see pdf book at: misler_estratto1_0.pdf (nieuweinstituut.nl)

An art movement is a tendency or style in art with a specific art philosophy or goal, followed by a group of artists during a specific period of time, (usually a few months, years or decades) or, at least, with the heyday of the movement defined within a number of years. Art movements were especially important in modern art, when each consecutive movement was considered a new avant-garde movement. Western art had been, from the Renaissance up to the middle of the 19th century, underpinned by the logic of perspective and an attempt to reproduce an illusion of visible reality (figurative art). By the end of the 19th century many artists felt a need to create a new style which would encompass the fundamental changes taking place in technology, science and philosophy (abstract art).

The art of movement refers to the way artists convey action and energy within their work. It involves utilizing elements such as line, shape, color, texture, space, and value to create a visual representation of physical motion. Essentially, it captures the dynamic essence of a moment in art. (AI Copilot)

The Way, Way Back is a 2013 American coming-of-age comedy-drama film written and directed by Nat Faxon and Jim Rash in their directorial debuts.

The story is about Duncan, an introverted 14-year-old who goes on summer vacation to Wareham, Massachusetts with his mother and her overbearing boyfriend.
