Stars are always evolving... if only there were a way to have mobile observatories. Look people, I know you're bright. Shoot for the stars;)

My most cherished vision had to do with studying the physical characteristics of the sun/stars through astrophysics. I'm the OG Raven.

I built four of the largest telescopes in the world. HALE YEAH MORON$

My dad was a wealthy Chicago businessman and bought me my first telescope when I was 14. #nodaddyissueshere

I LITerally convinced my counselor to let me drop out of college in Berlin and ruined my chances of being a doctor. #astrophysicsislyfe

ALL HALE MY 200 INCH TELESCOPE. I changed the face of astronomy forever after WW2. nbd.

[George Hale @GeorgeHale68]

Gee, would you look at that mega babe. Good lord my telescope is just too hot to handle.

[George Hale @GeorgeHale68]

@GeorgeHale68 get it, out of this world (like space);)

[George Hale @GeorgeHale68]

My B.O. is out of this world!

[George Hale @GeorgeHale68]

I can remember anything about astrophysics you throw at me, but if you try to get me to remember how to bathe... you've lost me!

[George Hale @GeorgeHale68]

Hey ladies... If you're ever needing better lighting for those selfies, avoid sunspots.

[George Hale @GeorgeHale68]

Got a D1 offer to build telescopes at Harvard; I turned them down for MIT. nbd.

[George Hale @GeorgeHale68]

People consider me the "Father" of modern astronomy, so you know I'm a big deal.

Fun fact of the day #1, I once had an elf help me with my work when I was living in the sanitarium! Oh, how I miss Neal:/

147 years ago I said "Some think that solar work is pretty well played out. In reality, it's only beginning." Dang I'm starting to feel old.

False. 93.5 million miles from the moon and 25 trillion miles from the Earth.
