“Written inside of us is the birth of the solar system and workings of the planet itself.<\/p>\n

Daily cycles are one of the most fundamental properties of life on earth. Examples abound, even in some of the disorders we suffer. In cases of advanced sleep phase syndrome, individuals typically fall asleep in the early evening, only to rise very early in the morning. People with A.S.P.S. have a very hard time changing this behavior, because the syndrome derives from a genetic mutation that causes a biochemical change to a part of their cellular clocks.<\/p>\n

Our clocks tie us not only to other creatures, but also to the formation of the solar system itself. The spinning of the earth and rotation of the moon form a backbeat that thumps inside the chemistry of our cells.<\/p>\n

With that great cataclysm came our seasons, months and the duration of days. Our internal timepieces, and some of the maladies we suffer, lie as artifacts of this moment in our planet\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s history.<\/p>\n

Carl Sagan famously reveled in the fact that \u00e2\u20ac\u0153we are starstuff,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d because the elements that compose us are derived from the birth of stars and the explosion of supernovae. These events are only the beginning of our deep connections to the universe.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
