is this natural?

From out in the Ort Cloud the Sun becomes just the biggest star among a zillion other stars.....it is cold out here beyond belief.....the warmth that nurtures nature doesn't get out here.....no wonder ancients worshiped the Sun, the giver of life.....aboard our little spaceship warmth comes from tricks with physics and technology.....it's like sleight of hand, mind of man over the heart of the matter.....but I heard somebody argue once that since man is natural, then his tricks are just an extension of what is natural.....words.....in the beginning was the word.....whatever way you look at it, or talk about it, it's cold out here. Cold and scary and lonely and for sure Beyond the Pale.....outside, far gone, tripped out. We have found some good stuff out here....good in that there are molecules present that we can use to feed the chemical manipulators so we can make more air, and water, and even food. Food is just various types of organic molecules....and damned if there aren't organics floating around out here with all the other stuff. How did that happen? Nature must be bigger than the Earth, after all.....
