Astronomers observe celestial bodies moving together in harmony. Pythagoras had a theory that the distances between the moon and planets were consistent with musical intervals, and that because objects in motion vibrate and produce sound, the planets must create a harmony of these musical intervals as they move. This ancient theory is called the "Music of the Spheres."
Planet Earth with her own unique song like that of birds chirping brings beauty and potential. The wondrous layers of rock formations of the Grand Canyon make one contemplate life on earth, and on a grander scale, the ancientness of our planet and all the other planets in the Milky Way. It puts into perspective we are a small world in a vast universe.
