On street corners everywhere, people are looking at their cell phones, and it's easy to dismiss this as some sort of bad trend in human culture. But the truth is life is being lived there.

American Comedian

Lewis Thomas

Irish Scientist

Giordano Bruno

I had to find some clarity about approaching life more spiritually. I think I'm kind of dense, and it makes me pull the process into mind and struggle over it in finding the path.

Rene Auberjonois

The mask of the character was already written into the show, but I actually lobbied for a denser and more complete mask than they initially considered.

Describes how elements are tightly packed together, often hard to separate visually or physically.

Physical Closeness

Not Literally Slow

Common in casual speech, can be teasing or mildly insulting.

Conversational Use

In physics, relates to how closely particles are packed; requires context to understand.

Scientific Specificity

Reflects mass in a specific volume, critical for understanding material properties.

Measure of Compactness

Indicates that something can severely limit visibility, such as fog or smoke.

Visual Impediment

Suggests that it’s hard for light to penetrate or see through something.

 than the red areas. These are tiny differences, but it was enough for the universe to move on to the next stage of building complexity. And this is how it works. Gravity is more powerful where there's more stuff. So where you get slightly denser areas, gravity starts compacting clouds of hydrogen and helium atoms.
