Happy Birthday Copernicus…

There is no one center of all the celestial spheres [orbits]. The Earth’s center is not the center of the universe. The center of the universe is near the sun.

But fewer American kids are growing up to be bona fide computer geeks. And that poses a serious security risk for the country, according to the Defense Department.
