Eric Horn first conceived of the idea of a space particle in 1980 after watching an episode of "Cosmos," the popular PBS television series presented by Carl Sagan. The analogies presented in the book were considered over many years. Following a back injury in 2017, he began the mathematical development of Space Particle Theory. Mr. Horn enjoys life in rural southern Oregon with his wife Terri, and their three cats, Taco, Mr. Joe Beal, and Miss Gracie Ree.
