Jonathan's blog! I'm a grad student at Johns Hopkins University, where I try to take pictures of giant exoplanets so we can figure out how they were made. The lower I set the bar for quality, the more likely I am to actually post.

Soylent Green
Here's a scary thought: If the world human population continues to grow at 1.14% per year, then we only have about 3,000 years before the entire mass of the Earth is converted into people. Good news, though; there is hope! We could reduce birth rates or let war, disease, and famine level out the human population, OR we could colonize the solar system. I know which one sounds a lot cooler.
