The moon and the stars and all the stories told, and all the fervent promises made under the night sky, are they not a poetry to be retold?
All the words that were spoken and those that were not- the night sky has witnessed it...

I wished on them and they were not satellites (with apologies to Billy Bragg).
I read that it was the peak night to look out for the Perseid meteor shower, and since I am lucky enough to be out in the middle of the Welsh...

This month, all seven of the planets in our solar system (not counting Pluto as a planet) will be visible all at once in the night sky, arranged in an extraordinary pattern called a “great planetary alignment". This is when their...

Tonight's moon hangs like a silver orb in the jet-black vault of the firmament, casting a soft glow over everything it touches. The night air is cool, and there’s a hush all around - a blanket of peace wrapped over the world it...

While there are a number of tourist places on the Earth, there are just a few places with clear Night sky views.
I came across Outer Hebrides in Scotland.
Here one can see Milky Way and Orion Nebula with naked eye.
It is located...

Went out for a walk earlier.
Working from home is fine but it does make one think about just staying indoors and not going out. I do try to go out in the morning, midday, and at night. Try being the operative word.
So earlier,...

There will be a lunar eclipse tomorrow night. It will start around sunset. Since the days are long, the duration will be long. It will probably be visible where you live. So, stay up and see it!

We got home late last night. It was completely dark. People were setting off a few fireworks, already. I could hear them, but not see them.
I looked around before I came in.
My yard and the one next to me were filled with...

My angle in the vale, I don't actually get to see the breaking of dawn. I just see the dark night sky.
At 4:30 am, clouds have formed that made the dark a little brighter. So I looked up, while praying for the magnificent...

I can't remember the last time I took a moment to stare at the night sky. When I was younger, I used to go up our roof and wonder about the creator/creation of the universe, and how we compare to the size of the stars and the...

When I was a child I was very frightened to look up at the sky at night. I used to feel very lost when I looked up and it was very frightening I do not know why? But as I grew up I loved looking up at the stars in the sky for...

I should have posted this yesterday, but anyway last night there was a meteor shower but you might still be able to catch the tail end of it tonight. I've only seen about 4 so far tonight, but if you are lucky you might be able to...

It's a little late but if it's clear here in the U.S. and other places you can see Jupiter and Venus close to the moon. (Usually the brightest stars are planets.) This was true for Sunday and Monday (11/30 and 12/1) also.. I'm...

I love night sky. I love to stare at the clear dark sky especially when it is moonless and the stars are twinkling brightly. I usually reminisce my childhood days whenever I look at the night sky. I also daydreaming while...
