Three random things I learned, or remembered, todayArchive for Astronomy
Journey by Starlight
NIGHT
This award winning blog looks fascinating.
“Journey by Starlight” is the untold story of Albert Einstein’s imaginary journey across the universe.
“This is the story of a great journey that started with a great thought. One day in 1895 a boy looked into a mirror and wondered what the universe would look like if he could travel on a beam of light. That sixteen year old boy was Albert Einstein and that one thought started him on the road to discover his Theory of Relativity.”
The Moon
NIGHT
Other planets in the solar system have moons, sometimes multiple moons. They all have names. Seemingly the name of our moon is simply “The Moon” with a capital “M”. Similarly, the stars are suns which are given names. Ours is “The Sun”
I suppose we have always known that.
