I thank Sid Dobrin for his constant encouragement toward a project of ecosee. Without his guidance, suggestions, and support, this project would not have developed. I also thank Andrew Gordon for his time and effort with my writing: I know it is not always easy. Of my peers, I thank all of them, but especially Clay Arnold for providing a sounding board for countless ideas, and for explaining to me why some of them are actually good. I thank my brothers, Tim and Andy, for always standing by me and slightly ahead; their brilliance and excellence provides me with constant motivation. I thank my parents, Frank and Susan, for supporting me in all my endeavors (even the dangerous ones), and for moving us to the Keys. I thank Julie for plenty of fuel and furniture, and Nick, Megan, Sarah, Jess, and Emma for everything else. I thank Coach Wise (and family), for providing me a house back home, and for always having the boat ready and the bonefish scouted. Finally, I thank Cathy, Milo, Dusty, Skye, and Toss, for putting up with me, waking me up in the morning, and making this project worthwhile.

Close to the window I could see that this Pacifi c scene in motion was rimmed by the great curved limb of the Earth. It had a thin halo of blue held close, and beyond, black space. I held my breath, but something was missing—I felt strangely unfulfi lled. Here was a tremendous visual spectacle, but viewed in silence. There was no grand musical accompaniment; no triumphant, inspired sonata or symphony. Each one of us must write the music of this sphere for ourselves.
