I was living through, after the divorce of my parents, I lived with my stepfather who had adopted us, changed our names, moved to different, we were changing schools every couple of years. And that discovery of the moon next to Jupiter, it was sort of like solving a puzzle. There's a famous saying by Albert Michelson. It was the first Nobel Prize winner in American history. Trevor Burrus, Jr.

: For what? Peter Van Doren, Jr. : Physics, sorry. Michelson, Morley, he proved in some sense that the Earth is not moving through the ether. That was hypothesized by luminaries beforehand. But the point was when a child solves a puzzle, like you would think, well, like an adult, you solve a Rubik's Cube. Okay, I did it once. I don't have to do it again. But like my son will keep doing it.

I'll keep like showing off. Can I get it faster? Video games, same thing. Once you solve the video, you don't just like throw it out and stop doing it. You get a taste of that thrill of discovery. Yes, it's diminished. And yes, we become inured to it as we get older and a little bit more โ there's just things we have to get โ take care of in life and especially as a professor scientist.

You can't like marvel over the same things you did when you first did these experiments. But as an โ you get transported. And you get to encounter something that you feel like no one has ever done before. For example, when I got my first telescope that night, a couple of months after discovering this, I looked through it and I saw the same features on the moon.

And I have a 3D printed moon that my son made to show you. And it has all the craters represented on it. It's so cool. And I saw the exact same craters on the moon that Galileo saw. And then I looked at Jupiter. And when you look at Jupiter, you not only see these beautiful atmospheric bands on it. And I brought you a telescope as your end of the year holiday gift.

It's yours to keep and no money down. Thank you. Keating brand telescope. Thanks for the gift. And I looked at Jupiter. And when you look at Jupiter, as I hope you'll do tonight or with your crew later on, you will see not only the planet, not only its little atmospheric stripes, maybe even the great red spot, which is amazing, three times bigger than the Earth.
