Space inspiration and doom scrolling are fighting for the same fifteen seconds of attention. One of them is winning right now, and it isn't the rocket. Tony Chapman noticed that and decided it was worth his time to do something about it.

In Costa Rica, where Tony lives, there's almost no light pollution. Last year he stood outside and watched Jupiter, Saturn, and Mars line up across the sky. Put his phone up. The app told him exactly what he was looking at. And the same feeling from a friend's porch in 1969, the night of the moon landing, a cigar, a full moon, and a bike ride home, came back without asking permission.

That feeling is a choice. Not the rockets, not the planets, not the lucky clear sky. The choice to look up when everything else is pulling you down. Tony Chapman started Chatter That Matters because he decided to keep making that choice out loud.
