Date: April 06, 2011 03:11AM last night i saw the biggest brightest shooting start i've ever seen
i was walking along the road and i saw a bright white streak in the sky i looked up and saw a rather large white fireball with a tail and some yellow-orange color in the tail the tail was breaking up into bits it was glorious and lasted enough for me to nicely soak it in and then i made a wish a special wish and now we shall see/d how it comes to manifest, if indeed it shall i wonder if any other earthly inhabitants saw the star it almost seemed like it was there just for me i wonder how many other wishes were made upon this shooting star i hope everybody gets their wish unless somebody wished for something weird like for the world to crash and burn in 2012 i hope 2012 goes smooth and groovy and easy sneezy gazunteight! starry eyed surprise: [www.youtube.com] Re: seein' stars

Date: April 06, 2011 07:24AM God is a DJ and all of creation is a dance
God differentiates into infinite bits in order to create the illusion of dancing with "others" God wants dance partners it's kinda sad, God is all alone, being God, forever so God slices Itself into a bazillion pieces crooked slices craggy slices slices within slices big and little slices it's a maze and the maze is always morphing lost and found and fost and lound and over and over and again and again imagine a clay ball... it represents the timeless configuration of God now take this ball and slice it a million times, in every which way and now slice it a million times more a trillion times more MOOORRREEEE!!! now... shift all the clay bits around move some parts to the other side swap some parts here swap some parts there and then put it back together into a nice round ball its a different ball with a different configuration it's all scrambled up... and down... and left right and sideways this is the predicament this is the maze its like we're all this clay ball... all shifted and scrambled and discombobulated but the secret is that the timeless configuration of God is still there it's hidden in the clay it's encoded it is timeless it can be sensed and experienced, in little ways, and big ways, and every day it's all around and within God is everywhere popping up in every way imaginable hiding in the darkness and shining in the light the timeless and absolute configuration of God is Love Love is the highest frequency vibration Love informs the ultimate array of wisdom and this Divine Love is infinitely interspersed throughout the entirety of the clay ball Love is the blessing in disguise Love is the gift of experiencing free will and conscious creation Love is sharing and caring and daring Love is the embrace of God's Grace Love is all there is Love is all Love is Love Luh Re: seein' stars

My skies here are pretty good.About average.I would say you could see stars down to about 6th magnitude,with the milky way being visible on the clearer nights. I have heard about how places like the open sea,or the desert,have skies that are peppered with stars. In my observing,I have seen many galaxies,and some even with some spiral structure.I have a 13" reflector. The star clusters are what blows me away.Millions of stars all concentrated in one spot. Once I got over the fact that you couldnt see nearly the kind of images we commonly see in Hubble pics in my own telescope,it got to be very exiting when I could squeeze out just a hint of structure in the galaxies and nebulas.

Date: April 07, 2011 10:24PM Yes they are!!
The ONLY thing about them is they do not in any way represent what you actually see thru a telescope. Those images are long exposure,color filtered,and sharpened.Plus,no earth atmosphere to fuzzy the images. Vinny Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
