A decade ago I wouldn't have expected how much time I'd end up spending in the empty middle of West Virginia, but life comes at you fast. On hindsight it was always a possibility as there's a giant telescope in the town of Green Bank, and I have a high-ranking position in the world's biggest SETI endeavor. After many visits to Green Bank Observatory, which is within the national radio quiet zone, the calm, Appalachian nowheresville vibe really grows on you. The pace of the region is lovely, given there is zero cell service, television, wifi, or radio.. A lot of the chatter of modern life is just.. gone. And it's wonderful.
