Using the insights of great mathematicians and endlessly observing the sky, he succeeded in confirming two things that altered human life forever: that there are more galaxies than our own, and that the universe is always expanding. Hubble's message to us is to find peace in the vastness of the mystery surrounding us, and to be curious. \"We do now know why we are born into the world,\" he said, \"but we can try to find out what sort of world it is.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIsabelle Marinov\u003c\/b\u003e speaks four languages fluently, but for a reason that defies her, English is her preferred language for prose.
