This is an adventure in the meaning of space and time and our place as a fundamental part of the universe. The constraints on earth type planets are examined as well as the suns that support them. You will go to the past and present of space (the fourth dimension) to see where the material comes for the continuing expansion of the universe. You will read about Edwin Hubble's adventure at the Mount Wilson Observatory where he discovered the Hubble constant. and the red shift of galaxies. And you will read about Milton Humason who dropped out of high school to live in the San Gabriel mountains north of Pasadena, California. There he was a mule driver hauling the Hooker telescope to the Mount Wilson observatory and later a valuable assistant to Dr. Hubble at Mount Wilson. I present the equation 2GHM = c 3 that governs the expansion of the universe.
