Here's just a little bit about me. I was born in 1889 in Marshfield, MO. #MyOnlyTrueHome #FAMILY #IWillNeverForget]]> 2018-02-02 18:58:45 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/227634024 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/227636614 2018-02-02 19:04:38 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/227636614 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/227636761 After all of the long and hard work days, I have finally discovered and announced that there is a linear relationship between the distance of a galaxy from the earth and its velocity of recession which means the universe is always expanding. #NewIdeas #AlwaysStriving #NeverGiveUp]]> 2018-02-02 19:04:59 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/227636761 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/227638143 How dare that no good George Gamow steal my idea of an expanding universe and put the title "Big Bang" on it. I swear I will get him back for this. #Revenge #WatchYourBack]]> 2018-02-02 19:08:18 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/227638143 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/227639111 Today in 1919 I begin my work on Mount Wilson with a 1.52 meter telescope. #HumbleBeginings #StriveForGreatness]]> 2018-02-02 19:10:31 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/227639111 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/227641340 Today I was blessed with the Bruce Medal a great achievment to astronomers and I am truly humbled. #Blessed #Humbled #BruceMedal #AlwaysStriving]]> 2018-02-02 19:15:31 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/227641340 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/227644067 Upon returning from World War I, I got a chance to use the 2.54 meter Hookertelescope and studied novas, stars, gaseous nebulas and much more. #TimeForRest #BackAtWhatILove #Incredible]]> 2018-02-02 19:21:38 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/227644067 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/227649327 I completed my doctorate today and was offered to join the Mount Wilson Observatory by George Hale on the same day. #Incredible #Blessed #AlwaysStriving]]> 2018-02-02 19:32:29 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/227649327 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/227651949 Today I had to make a decision. Fight in the war or study start work at Mount Wilson. My patriotism has overcome my love for astronomy and I will fight in the war.]]> 2018-02-02 19:39:04 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/227651949 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/228619327 Today I possibly discovered a Cepheid. This could possibly be a great discovery because I can see how far it is from Earth. #Distance #SeekingInfo]]> 2018-02-06 14:42:08 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/228619327 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/228622438 Turns out that my belief was true. After a week of research what I thought was a Cepheid truly was. I have calculated already and this Cepheid is about 930,000 light- years. #Incredible #WorkHard #AlwaysStriving]]> 2018-02-06 14:46:55 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/228622438 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/228626391 While there are some really annoying people at Mount Wilson, I highly dislike one in particular. His name is Harlow Shapley. I simply dislike him. He believes the Milky Way is the only galaxy and that is so stupid. I plan to send him a letter about my Andromeda galaxy discoveries. #Enraged #Furious #CanHeBeFired]]> 2018-02-06 14:51:59 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/228626391 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/228630829 I have devised a system to classify galaxies and possible evolution paths. There are elliptical galaxies, spiral galaxies, barred sprial galaxies, and irregulars. #HardWorkIsTheBestWork #AlwaysSomethingToDiscover #AlwaysStriving]]> 2018-02-06 14:57:34 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/228630829 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/228636760 Everybody interested in astronomy needs to come out and purchase my new book The Realm of the Nebulae go out and purchase it at your local book store or library. #Ad #NewBook #Astronomy]]> 2018-02-06 15:05:53 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/228636760 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/228638188 Today I went to a Hollywood party and met a delightful and talented man named Charlie Chaplin. #NewFriends #NeededThis]]> 2018-02-06 15:08:07 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/228638188 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/228640411 I have decided to take another break from astronomy because of a war. This time I am in the Ballistics Research Lab in Maryland. #Patriotism #USA #NeverStopFightingForWhatsRight]]> 2018-02-06 15:11:05 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/228640411 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/228642109 Once again after a war I got to try a brand new telescope but this time I was the first allowed to use it. The telescope is titled the Hale Telescope after the astronomer George Ellery Hale whom I helped out a bit 20 years ago. #ItsASmallWorld #OldFriend #PassingOnTheTorch]]> 2018-02-06 15:13:30 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/228642109 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/228645854 I have been messing around trying to find out what I will become and I turn out to be a good boxer. #PossibleCareer #NewBegginings]]> 2018-02-06 15:18:59 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/228645854 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/228807441 Different from previous belief, my studies on the Cepheid have brought me to believe our galaxy is most definatly not the only galaxy. We are just one in infinity. I am so exited that my research has discovered something that will change the way we look at space. #Incredible #WeAreSmallerThanWeThink #LifeLongGoal]]> 2018-02-06 19:16:36 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/228807441 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/229214723 I have decided my degree from law to spanish. #BigChange #NewPath #WorkingHard]]> 2018-02-07 17:22:10 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/229214723 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/229217525 After 20 or more years of not being on this old account, I have decided to start tweeting again. In the past 20 years I have been measuring the distance of countless objects and Cephieds. #BackAgain #AlwaysStriving #ItsGoodToBeBack]]> 2018-02-07 17:26:38 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/229217525 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/229219982 As I rest here waiting for the inevitable death, I think about my life and smile. I had many friends, many fans, many acheivments. I still can't believe I will go down in history as the man who discovered the expanding universe and that I will go down as one of the greatest astronomers. I started as just a young boy in Marshfield, but now I lay awake in California. Goodbye and God bless you all. #AlwaysStrive]]> 2018-02-07 17:30:27 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/229219982 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/229224432 Hey guys I just wanted to thank Nasa (even though I'm dead) for naming their powerful telescope after me. #Nasa #HubbleTelescope #StillStrivingAfterDeath]]> 2018-02-07 17:37:56 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/229224432 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/229227233 I have decided that my new study will be on the Andromeda Nebula #NewStudies #Interesting #Striving]]> 2018-02-07 17:42:30 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/229227233 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/229228718 Today I discovered that the further galaxies are from each other the faster they move away from each other. #Interesting #BigIdeas #AlwaysStriving]]> 2018-02-07 17:44:55 UTC https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/229228718 abrown156 https://padlet.com/abrown156/rta5oe6eqga3/wish/229232754 As sad as it is I had a heart attack on vacation to Colorado.
