☆ My best friend's blog talked about generalization and how it can sound offending. Another lesson learned. I feel lucky to have friends who share different things in life. It's much better than academic school lessons lol. I feel little sick but I think I can manage another SWR, I mean, what's so tiring about looking up in the sky? Oh, speaking of looking up, a lot of newbies would gaze at the stars while standing. Bad idea! Well, if you are gazing at the star for 5 minutes, it wouldn't hurt much. But imagine yourself standing like that for 30 minutes! So here is the solution... Get your reference, flashlight, and a mat. You can lie down in the mat and it can make star gazing much easier. (Just be sure that you don't lie down where cars run or in the middle of the road, you don't wanna look like a begger.) I mentioned flashlights. It helps you point out stars, you can say it works as a pointer in some sense. Any color would be fine but I recommend red. Red colored flashlights don't distract your eyesight, preventing you from seeing low magnitude stars. (Remember your eyes always adjusts to visible lights.) So where can you get a red flashlight? If you don't have one, try painting the glass side with a light red nail polish. Sounds kinda weird but it works.
☆ Oh yes, I was lazy yesterday. I don't deny it. But SWR continues today. Magnitude of 3 and higher could be seen with unaided eye. Sky is clear but moonlight is distrubing my sight a little. Therefore I chose a place where houses blocks out the moonlight from my sight, which also means, I am not going to be able to see any stars on "that" direction. It's 9:30pm. It's lucky that the sky is clearer than 2days ago. It's just my wish but I always wish something strange happen in the celestial sphere. But nothing is strange today. I saw one satellite body. You will come to a time when you see a tiny star moving relatively fast. (I am not talking about airplanes okay?) It's definitely not UFO (Unidentified Flying Object) It's just one of thousand satellite orbiting around the earth everyday. Many people often misjudge them as extraterrestrial objects. It's funny how poeple want to escape reality and enter into fantasy. hahaha. So yup! That's all for SWR today. Don't ever let satellites fool you!
