This striking composite indicates that four monstrously massive stars, collectively called the "Trapezium," at the center of the cloud may be the main culprits in the Orion constellation, a familiar sight in the fall and winter night sky in the northern hemisphere.

I am a retired Episcopal priest who has given Christmas sermons for thirty years… It is refreshing to see the unnecessary cleavage between science and religion denounced for the illogicality that it is…. Thank you for your sensitive treatment of a dissonance that in reality is creating a spiritual/scientific vision of the universe that even Maimonides forsaw…”

I just finished reading [your] editorial in the Rocky Mountain News in Denver about your book, “Let There be Light.” It was one of the best articles I can remember reading ever. I consider myself an amateur astronomer and I try to keep up on current cosmological news. Reading about the way your book combined cosmology and religion was fascinating. I can’t wait to get the book.”

I am writing to thank you for writing such a good book, and to say how much your writing gets through to me. I am so pleased, and feel so good reading your words, thoughts, and ideas… This book is so meaningful to me, and I will tell others about it. When I walk outside of town I am in intimate contact with the sky, and the macro-worlds on the Earth– its flowers, insects, clay, and rocks. At these times I feel in touch. A book like yours is for these times. Great.”‘
