Hello readers!!!
A few days ago, the Astronomy Department of my University organized a night sky watch event. People were invited to get a chance to watch those twinkling stars and shining planets a little closer with the help of telescope.
One of my friend is a astronomy student and she asked me to come and watch the mesmerizing view. I went there at around 6 p.m. in the evening though it was pretty dark outside (even at such a time).
Many people came to enjoy the view and experience something new. Many students from my hostel also went there.
A long queue was there and people were muttering what they saw and how much they loved it.
My turn came and I popped up my head, took it near to the lens and closed an eye as was instructed.
The first thing I saw was the planet Jupiter (the largest known) having around 79 moons as per the information, the teacher was providing.
I was able to see a small bright sphere with some sort of orange- blue shades( I am not a astronomy student and also not much interested in googling about them, so I don't know about them in much detail. I am writing to just share my small new experience).At the right side of it, there were three bright spots, the three visible moons of it and also on the left side,at a good distance ,another one . It was looking lovely. The teacher told us that only four moons of Jupiter are visible through Earth (Pretty exciting).
After a while, they rearranged the telescope and showed us the planet Saturn with its rings.
It was looking so cute, to be honest, a reddish brown sphere with those ringsβ¦.!
At this time, I am not having images of those planets, the way we saw them on that day, but it was really an amazing experience for me. From always, I wanted to watch planets with a telescope and on that day, my little wish got fulfilled.

Various changes are about to happen on this website in just few days. I am a bit nervous about the points (like everyone).
I am planning to withdraw points as soon as possible, just few left to complete the target.
Let's see what's going to happen next and experience it together.
Now, my life is taking tragic turns and I am experiencing something which I have never experienced before (for my good?! I DON'T KNOW).
All the bloggers are doing greatπ.
Keep writing, sharing and reading π€.
Thank you for reading.
