Listening to Mars serves as a record of our national transit, one a journey from there-before the Covid-19 pandemic-to here-a new now. Our microscopes pinpoint a virus; our telescopes search the edges of the Universe; we look, as we always have, to the heavens for comfort and clarity. Underlying our global social turmoil is the environmental emergency we find ourselves facing, and the irony of seeking new worlds while degrading if not destroying our own.

Trying to find the glints of light in the journey we are still traveling.
