“This is an image I created of DNA and how all 64 codons create a record of life in all its shapes and forms. Everything is created from these 64 patterns. We all have our own tune to play. Mine is C F# B in G Major, but all the patterns, codons,* and music will cross my path at different times in my life. Do your best to play beautiful music. Your place in the world makes all the difference to a happy tune.” – Pluto, KindSpring.org

My friend Pluto is brilliant. She understands science and math so well and, while I love learning about science (and aced chemistry in high school) it doesn’t come easily for me. I didn’t know, for example, that there really are four basic colors in DNA. Here’s an article about it layman’s terms:
