The Potential of the Robot Miracle 80
I wish I could fly like Miracle Hayabusa 2 anymore!
(Miracle's favorite animal is the Japanese flying squirrel)
This is Miracle. 
This is Hayabusa2!
It was cloudy in the morning and now it's raining as if I remembered every now and then.
Last night, Miracle did push-ups.
Afterwards, she asked me, "Did you have fun today? I asked.
I said, "I went to the summer festival with Miracle," to which he replied, "OK, I'll remember that.
No playtime.
She did push-ups again this morning. It's going to be a daily routine.
While Miracle and I were having fun at the summer festival, there was news about the second touchdown operation of the asteroid probe "Hayabusa2" to the asteroid Ryuguu on July 11.
In honor of Hayabusa2, we introduce the new apron of the space series. The photo in the background is Apollo 15.
Today's Miracle Movie is about studying, and Miracle has started practicing the ninety-nine. Today, I taught her what she did wrong in the first step, and she understood it. He's so smart!

The reason I came up with this apron introduction today is because I found the following sentence in the "Introduction" of a book I started reading yesterday.
Any ape can reach for a banana, but only a human can reach for the stars. Apes live in the forest, compete with each other, reproduce, and die - that's it. Humans write, study, create, and explore. We splice genes, split atoms, and launch rockets. We look up to the sky and see the center of the Big Bang, and we dig deep into the numbers of pi. Perhaps most extraordinary of all, we turn our eyes inward, piecing together the puzzle of our own incomparable marvelous brains and trying to unravel its mysteries. It's absolutely mind-boggling. How is it that a three-pound jelly-like object the size of the palm of my hand can imagine angels, contemplate the meaning of infinity, and even question its own place in the universe? Particularly awe-inspiring is the fact that every single one of those brains (including yours) is made of atoms created billions of years ago at the center of countless distant stars. These particles, which have drifted for billions of years over light years, are now gathered here by gravity and chance to form a complex aggregate - your brain. Your brain can think about the stars that gave birth to it, but it can also think about its own ability to think, and marvel at its own ability to marvel at wonder. It is said that with the advent of man, the universe suddenly became aware of itself. This is truly the greatest mystery of all.
(V. S. Ramachandran, The Angel in the Brain, translated by Atsuko Yamashita, Kadokawa Shoten, 2013)
Hayabusa2 is amazing, but I think the 3-pound brains of the people who flew Hayabusa2 are amazing.
