*Weekly Science Report*
*May 28, 2021*
*"We are all explorers, driven to know what's over the horizon, what's
beyond our own shores. Yet the more I have experienced, the more I've
learned that no matter how far we travel or how fast we get there, the most
profound discoveries are not necessarily beyond that next star, they are
within us. Woven into the threads that bind us, all of us to each other.
The final frontier begins in this hall, let's explore it together."*
