Most of these experiments required the reduction of the cosmic ray muon flux in order to be successful, and the group necessarily became expert in the operation of deep underground laboratories. ↗

I loved Old School. I thought Old School was very different than a lot of the comedies that had come out. And that character I liked. I tried to ground him very much in reality and play him very much finding things important to him that are somewhat ridiculous. ↗

I come from one of these hideous backgrounds where being sincere is like - ugh, you might as well kill yourself. ↗

But I would lie on the floor and analyze everything. I'd listen to all the strings and the background vocals on the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack and try to pick out the different instruments. ↗

As a child is indulged or checked in its early follies, a ground is generally laid for the happiness or misery of the future man. ↗

From here, it becomes an engineering problem; the engineer considers the ground motion that will occur and evaluates the requirements of the proposed structure in the light of the local foundation conditions. ↗

I repeatedly have to correct this belief. In a sense, magnitude involves steps of 10 because every increase of one magnitude represents a tenfold amplification of the ground motion. But there is no 'scale of 10' in the sense of an upper limit. ↗

My background is in physics, so I was the mission specialist, who is sort of like the flight engineer on an airplane. ↗

For quite some time, women at NASA only had scientific backgrounds. ↗
