In the early years of modern astronomy, someone devised the phrase "astronomical intimidation" but it need no longer frighten. When one pointed out how small man is, astronomically speaking, another replied, "Astronomically speaking, man is the astronomer!" An executive who supervised the work of 2,000 pointed out that a big job is just a lot of little jobs.

If the little jobs are done, the big job takes care of itself. If, on the other hand, the little jobs are slighted, the big one may collapse. No matter how small a detail man may be, it would not be an orderly universe if his part in it were meaningless. Man not lost on the New Frontiers!
