Last time I noticed that I write less frequently about Universe.
I wrote this text on the 5th of May, 2022. It was a day when I realized that I write less frequently about Universe. There are many reasons for it.
I will try to list some of them:
– I await spectacular first photographs from the James Webb Space Telescope. The truth is that the whole world of science is waiting both for data and pictures from this space telescope.
– I probably need new stimulus and new knowledge regarding broadly defined astronomy. Within the last months, I also read less frequently about Universe.
– War in Ukraine somehow reminded me that many of us should focus on everyday activities without rocking in the clouds.
The sale on the Bookoff, my favorite book store, is coming. This time I will buy a book.
I hope that there will be some good books about the Universe on sale. The truth is that I love rocking in clouds and making interstellar traveling in my imagination. I hope the nearest future will provide me with new stimuli regarding the cosmos. I was inspired to write this text because Facebook presented me with one photograph. It was the pictures of what the sunset on Mars looked like. The Perseverance rover took the image in November 2021. When I saw it, I started to remind what I was doing during this period.
At the same time, I began to imagine how sunsets and sunrises look on other planets of the Solar system.
While imagining all these things, I became sad. Why? Because I realized how many things my eyes won’t ever see. I do not believe that I will ever stomp on Mars. Moreover, probably no one ever will stamp on, e.g., the Mercury. Why? Because it is too close to Sun. Venus’s atmosphere is too dangerous for human bodies. Other planets, except Earth and Mars, are made of gas. Thus, it would be impossible to land on them. But how do sunrises and sunsets look on them? What about Jupiter’s moons, e.g., Europa and Io? There is so much to be seen there, and… well… we have war in Ukraine and many things to do here, on Earth. That’s why I stopped writing this text to hug my beloved Kamilka.
