Night sky Essays

Away from lanterns and flashlights, I focused my attention upward; toward the stars. I had never noticed the magnificence of the night sky before this moment. The stars filled every corner of my vision and the thought of them filled me with wonder. How could an enormous ball of exploding gas, able to consume our entire planet, our existence, look small? I marveled at the sky and a sense of peacefulness washed over me. The nearer you are to nature, the more violent it looks. From far away, everything

Everything Will Be Okay The Belt of Deltora was restored. A clear morning had dawned, with a pure blue sky and a golden sun that beamed a comforting warmth and light on the land. Nobody in Del had slept the previous night. Their night had been filled with commotion and fear, but had ended with a pleasant hope, as the Deltora's heir was revealed, the Belt shone brightly, and the darkness that had long ensnared the land was defeated. It had been decided that the newly dawned day would be one of rest

The Sky Spirit, Shawnee Tribe, and Kiwaan 's legacy   Long ago lived a great Sky Spirit, a Giant Snake named Scavenger, and a mischievous Coyote by the name of Kahali.

All around them was nothing but clouds as the eye can see.   One day the Sky Spirit decided that he will make new land and a new place down below on the world of nothingness.

Have you ever looked up at the night sky? Have you ever noticed the patterns, the constellations? They’re so beautiful. Yet, the sky looks so much prettier when you just see it as a mess. It looks like a toddler splattered black all over dark jeans. It doesn’t sound so appealing when I put it like that though. Look around you, what do you see? Do you see patterns in the people you’re friends with, or the people you’re sitting with? If they all look like you and all are from the same culture as you

Gulliver sat down on the grass, which was very short and soft, where he slept sounder than ever he recalled to have done in my life and as I reckoned about 9 hours, ever It suddenly went cold and Gulliver found himself in an empty bedroom. the window gives off a bright white light, he looked out and was stunned by the beauty that the moon gives off. “It’s quite a beautiful light to be sure, but I have no time to waste, I need to find out where I am.” Gulliver heard a sound behind. “Ah, your awake

days, perhaps years; I had no idea. There was no sense of time, let alone any way to measure it. The light melting through my curtains was constant, warm and fragile, as though that side of the world was always on the brink of the evening. Never did night fall, nor midday nor morning. It never rained, nor snowed, nor grew too hot or too cold - leading me to believe that not much time had passed since I had first gotten there. The entire space around remained in a constant, untouched, neutral state.

It is evening and there is a yellow light which can be barely seen. The source of the light is a close by planet called Ploemia. Its smaller sister can be seen somewhat lower on the horizon and it emits a green light and is called Riutania. These two heavenly bodies shine on the castle which is built upon the Planet Kneaded Hills. Inside this castle's silent hallway you can even hear as the fire flickers. There are two guards in front of a door. One of them is already asleep and the other one is

Before Galileo Galilei observed the night sky with his telescope the universe was perfect. Galileo was a brilliant mathematician and became a professor at the University of Pisa when he was 25 years old. He became entangled with the cosmos when he was required to teach an astronomy class. He lectured on Ptolemaic astronomy, which placed the earth at the center of the universe with the planets and sun moving around it. As he became more familiar with the subject he began to move more towards the Copernican

Bryce Bullock R. Gibson ENG IIB 8 March 2023 Night: A Darker Meaning Than The Midnight Sky Night is a powerful and unforgettable memoir written by Elie Wiesel about his experiences as a Jewish teenager during the Holocaust.

Like someone tapping on the windows, rain poured down and hit the windows. The sky above was dark and cloudy. Streaks of lightning flashed across the sky. Thunder boomed. The wind whistled. There was a musty smell of mold and rain that lingered in the small, one room abandoned house. Lucille sat in the corner holding her rag doll, Amy. Amy was a rag doll with button eyes and yarn hair. The room was bare with the exception of a few things, Lucille, a sewing kit, and Lucille's doll. There were also

the dark cold world of earliest times the people had no fire. All of the people at raw food and shivered in the cold. Because Raven knew that there was fire up in the sky. One night he flew up through a hole in the sky to the tent of the sun. He transformed himself into a baby boy and lay outside the tent. The daughter of the skies found him, and brought him into the sun 's tent. The baby boy grew quickly. Became a toddler

I clenched my stomach as we drove down the road. My eyes focused on one star in the sky, I knew if I pulled my eyes away my insides would be out and exposed to everyone. My cheeks stung from tears and my breaths were short as we drove to my church. as we pulled up it took me a while to open the car door, my hands were shaky and weak. friends hugged me and cried as I buried my head into their shoulders, the little light of hope I had left in my heart was burning out and I could feel it. I could see

image of curtain like colors moving throughout the sky. For thousands of years, the northern lights have fascinated and amazed those who have seen the natural wonder. Although pale green and pink are the most common colors, shades of red, yellow, green, blue, and violet have also been reported. The lights appear in many forms from patches or scattered clouds of light, to streamers, arcs, rippling curtains or shooting rays that light up the sky with an eerie glow. The show at the Planetarium is

Reaching the time in the day when the sun settles down and the moon wakes up, the air turns the sultry day into a chilly night. As the last of the beach goers leave, the only things that can be heard are the tides hitting the shore and the seagulls flying above our heads. My husband, Trent sets about to make a fire for the night. I call to my daughters to come change into their pajamas. After everyone changes and the fire blazes, the whole family sits around the fire wrapped in an enormous flannel

details whilst maintaining a soft and smooth stroke line. This interprets the theme of ‘The Bush’ by comparing it to Australia’s inner core landscape.

standing on top of a cliff that faced a forest that seemed to go on for miles. The soles of my feet made contact with the coarse rocky ground, whose bumps tried to penetrate my skin. Above me was a twilight sky that was pinkish-purple in colour. You could see the many twinkling stars hanging from the sky. From below me I could hear the singing of cicadas and the chirping of bird, which blended together to form an orchaestra. A gentle blew against my face, bringing along with the salty scent of the ocean

The way that Dove and Swir use metaphors in their poems do exactly this. Dove uses a metaphor to describe the beautiful stars in the night sky, “and night strewn salt across the sky.” A lot of people find delight when looking at the stars so it would make sense for Dove to use the concept of stars in her poem. Many people believe that if you wish upon a shooting star then your wish will come true. So by

past summer in the beginning of June, I went camping for the 2nd time in the Sierra Mountains. The drive there was 5 hours of a mostly desolate road full of desert the first half of the trip, and pastures filled with cows and horses the second. The sky was clear, which seemed an almost foreign aspect to behold considering the mountains we see in our backyard everyday seem to be filled with a constant grey haze.
