Stargazing was one of the first things I put on my summer list. I love Stargazing. Mainly because stars boggle my mind, just like addition and how food bloggers stay skinny. Among other things. 2+2 really equals 4?? Get out, I know you are lying.
Anyway! Regardless of whether your pants are on fire or not, I went stargazing. The first problem is that I only know 1 constellation. It's Orion, and whenever I see him I shout for joy and tell everyone I'm with about him. Clearly though, my star repertoire needed to be expanded. So then I faced problem #2: finding new ones! After much googling, mom found me this iPad app.
IT WORKS!
Really. I was so thrilled. I found new constellations and made dad and mom come outside and watch me giggle and snort and trip over unidentified objects in the dark. I spotted planets and far away stars and basically thought I was the coolest person ever.Well maybe I was. In my backyard anyway.
Let's be frank (and eat hotdogs:) Stargazing is cool!
PS: Something uncool? Having your iPad background and blog header match. Ouch. Sorry about the sizing issues for the header, on my computer, it's fairly small! Oh geez, let's all just get the same size monitor okay? That would clear up all the confusion.
I love stargazing but living in the city makes it kind of hard unfortunately. :)
ReplyDeleteI've never been stargazing. The air is so smoggy where I live that you can't really see any stars, let alone find constellations. :(
ReplyDeleteThat's a bummer! I want to live in the city, but I kind of forgot about that part.
