The frozen ball of ice won’t return to the inner solar system for 6,800 years.” Talk about it! https://www.nytimes.com/article/neowise-comet.html I.am.so.tired. My work has this thing where they think because I'm young, I can work like 15 hours a day. They're like, "Ah, you're young, you'll bounce back!" Bro, no I won't. I'm fucking exhausted. Like, that shit is so toxic in a workplace. They'll tell me when they were my age they worked 18 hours a day. Okaaay then. I barely even time to eat/shower some days. It's not every day, but it's enough days that I'm using my weekends to just catch up on sleep sometimes. So, my thoughts on the NEOWISE comet... First thought was how late do you have to stay up to see it? But then I read that it's only an hour and a half after sunset. Second thought was... I'm never going to see this where I live. Light pollution is real. When it said, "First you just find the Big Dipper" I was like yup, I'm out. I can rest assured though that I live in the digital age and will be able to see countless photos and videos of the comet. It looks really cool in the photograph of Grand Junction, CO at the bottom of the article. Everyone's summer activities entries the other day made me want to go camping. Well, not like camping camping, but ya know, be in nature a little bit. Here's the thing, I think astronomy is cool. My brother had a telescope as a kid and we spent so many summer nights looking at the moon and various constellations. I'll watch space mission launches and check out NASA's astronomy picture of the day, which happens to be this comet today, by the way. Other than that though, I'm not really up on my astronomy stuff. Always thought it was interesting, but when you have several hobbies and a fairly busy schedule, it's not something you can more than dip your toes in, really. It's a big subject. I think astronomical events are super cool. If I hear there's gonna be one in sight, I'll try to check it out if I remember (I rarely do). Other than that, I'll leave the astronomy up to the astronomy hobbyists. It doesn't hurt me You want to feel how it feels? |
