"We open our eyes and see the sun rise, move through the sky, and then set.
Except, of course, that it does no such thing. ‘Seeing’ is a powerful force on our thinking,
and centuries of scientific work were needed to replace a geocentric theory of the solar system with a heliocentric one.
Science begins in the everyday human attempt to understand the world."
- J.A. Russell, '09
