This site has been set up to share a few family photos and experiences, to suggest some good books and classical recordings and to share a number of articles about the worlds of science, business and literature.

Enjoy.
I have been asked why "eternalchaos"? It's because back in 1995, when this site was set up originally, "eternalchaos.com" was one of the few interesting astronomy-related URLs that was still available.
Astronomy-related? We know that the earth is about 4.3 billion years old and that the universe is about 13.7 billion years old. In about another six billion years, the sun will have expanded into a red giant and will have incinerated the earth. Hopefully, well before then, our civilization, if it hasn't already destroyed itself, will have been able to move somewhere else. However, the universe seems to be expanding at an accelerating rate, all the while cooling down. Eventually, all the stars will have exhausted their supplies of nuclear and gravitational energy. The sky will have become black. Pockets of life will have disappeared. Black holes will have all evaporated. Asymptotically the average temperature of the universe will approach absolute zero, leading to its ultimate fate, eternalchaos.
Sounds gloomy, but there is so much to enjoy right now, in the eternal chaos of every-day life. Go after it.
