Claudia Dreifus, China’s Evolving Science System; A specialist in black holes finds that a nation’s scientific ambitions are infectious. New York Times, Dec 1, 2015 (under the heading "A Conversation with Luis Ho")

Quotation in the window of print: “How can something so tiny like a black hole influence the entire galaxy itself? The belief now is that they know how to talk to one another.”

Hubble remained on staff at Mount Wilson until his death in 1953")  Wikipedia
(ii) "He [Hubble] studied mathematics and astronomy at the University of Chicago and earned a bachelor of science degree in 1910. He was one of the first Rhodes Scholars at Oxford University, where he studied law [because his gather wanted him to, and he received BA in law in 1912; afterwards he returned to US, was admitted to the bar, and opened a law office at Louisville, Kentucky]. After serving briefly in World War I, he returned to the University of Chicago and earned his doctorate degree in 1917 [in astrophysics, with a thesis titled 'Photographic Investigations of Faint Nebulae']."
