Sunrise outlining the winglets on my flight out of Cedar Rapids back in late January, on my way to Santa Barbara, California. At the meeting that I was attending, there was an undercurrent of concern about this new SARS-CoV-2 epidemic and its potential spread. By the time that I returned, the genetic sequence had been published and we had a preprint posted locating key sections of the virus, one of which would later be confirmed as the spike protein critical to its infectiousness. All that was in the future, however, and at this time I simply enjoyed the slowly evolving colors on the sea of the sky all around me.
