Solaris-3.jpgSolaris162 visite"I only know one thing. When I... When I sleep, I know no fear, no hope, no trouble, no bliss, Blessings on him he who invented sleep. The common coin that purchases all things, the balance that levels shepherd king, fool and wise man. There is only one bad thing about sound sleep. They say it closely resembles death".5 commentiMareKromium

Sundogs1.jpgThe "Dogs of the Sun"158 visiteI "Cani del Sole", un evento naturale decisamente curioso e, purtroppo, piuttosto raro dalle nostre parti (diciamo purtroppo poich si tratta di un fenomeno alquanto suggestivo). Secondo i Navajo, l'apparizione dei due (apparenti) Soli Minori (i "cani", appunto) accanto al Sole Maggiore, costituiva di regola un presagio favorevole e, per i guerrieri/cacciatori, il verificarsi di questa "apparizione" costituiva l'annuncio di una stagione di caccia (o anche di una semplice "battuta", magari) particolarmente favorevole. I "Cani del Sole" e la relativa leggenda vennero anche - incidentalmente - ripresi nel film (ormai entrato nella Storia del Cinema) "The Deer Hunter", con R. de Niro.

MoonMercMonaco_jacques_full.jpgThe Moon and Mercury, from Monaco (FRA)157 visiteUna falce di Luna ed una piccola scintilla, piuttosto alta nel cielo della sera: Mercurio.
Una bella immagine che ci arriva dalla Francia e che ha trovato spazio anche nella Rubrica "NASA - Picture of the Day".
Questa la caption originale:"Low on the western horizon after sunset, a slender crescent Moon and wandering planet Mercury join the lights of Menton and Monaco along the French Riviera. Astronomer Vincent Jacques took advantage of this gorgeous photo opportunity a week ago on March 11, when the Moon and Mercury were separated in the sky by just 3. Of course, the Moon in a slender crescent phase is always seen near the horizon, as is Mercury - a bright planet which can be difficult to glimpse as it never strays far from the Sun in Earth's sky. In the coming days good views of Mercury will indeed be fleeting as the Solar System's innermost planet is rapidly dropping closer to the glare of the setting Sun".

Moon and Companions~0.jpgMoon, Mars and Venus155 visiteDa "NASA - Picture of the Day" del 19 Ottobre 2005:"On another October 19, in 1899, a 17 year-old Robert Goddard climbed a cherry tree on a beautiful autumn afternoon in Worcester, Massachusetts. Inspired by H.G. Wells' "War of the Worlds" and gazing out across a meadow, young Goddard imagined it would be wonderful to make a device that had the possibility of ascending to Mars. Forever more he felt his life had a purpose and in the following years his diary entries record October 19th as "Anniversary Day", the anniversary of his ascent into the cherry tree. By 1926 he had designed, built, and flown the world's first liquid fuel rocket. Mars is just visible through the trees at the lower right in this dramatic sky view that also features the Moon and Venus - all visited by liquid fuel rockets constructed on principles developed by Goddard".
