Nice to meet you
I'm Dew — yes, like the water that shows up uninvited on the grass every morning, and yes, I've heard every pun there is to make about it. I made a few myself before you got here.
This blog is where I collect the strange, obscure corners of the universe that don't usually make headlines: stars that dim in ways they shouldn't, gravitational anomalies we can feel but can't see, voids the size of hundreds of millions of light-years. Every so often I'll surface for air and write about something just as strange sitting right here on Earth — the parts of it we still haven't fully mapped, explained, or explored.
I'm not an astrophysicist or a geologist. I'm just someone who reads too many papers and abstracts for fun and can't stop turning them into essays. Everything here is researched carefully, but written like a letter, not a lecture.
If you're the kind of person who finds "we don't fully know why" more exciting than unsettling, you're in the right place.
