Does She Remain the Same, 16"X20" acrylic.
Reflection Nebula M78,
One of the brightest reflection nebula in the sky, is about five light-years across, this view is from 16,000 years ago.
Are we Alone.

Scientist can decipher Nebulas as innumerable particles of dust, hydrogen and helium gas, and plasma, collapsing and clumping together due to mysterious gravitational attraction into vast clouds light years across time and space, Appearing like fantastical worlds and beings .

Knowing that the dung beetle uses the Milky Way for orientation and navigation, then perchance, Nebulas are gravitational clouds held together by an extraterrestrial orphic intelligence. That is so alien to human understanding, we simply do not see them in plane sight.

From this perspective the question arises ' what is intelligence and does it have parametric limits?'
