Why
name a crater after Pablo Neruda?
Our
planet is not a single entity separate from the rest
of the universe. It is a living celestial body that
is dependent on every other living thing. Earth was
bombarded with meteorites and other particles, but through
the shifting of continents and changing landscape of
our planet, the damage is not apparent. While other
planets have their scars exposed as craters. Craters
on other planets and on our own Moon are clear examples
of our connectivity and dependency with everything in
the universe and of our own frailty. Much of Pablo Neruda's
work deals with humanity's frailty and passion for life.
He is one of our greatest poets and the people's poets.
To honor him and his work, we have petitioned the International
Astronomical Union to name a crater on Mercury after
him. [more]
