What's your favourite star?
Yes, I am really into watching the sky especially at night to count the millions of
stars above. When I was a kid. I remember I sometimes laid down on the grass
for hours to watch the shining stars during the summer because I was fond of
imaging my favourite folk stories about the stars.
Well, as my hometown is a popular tourist destination and there is not so much
industrial pollution, the sky is always clean and clear, and I can see the stunning
night sky with the countless and glittering stars and sometimes even the galaxy.
But unfortunately in a metropolis like Nanjing light pollution makes the night sky
invisible.
No, I have never been on any sort of courses about stars because actually there
were no such courses in the schools or university. But fortunately my
grandmother once sent me an encyclopaedia about nature in which there were
loads of stories about stars, I got most of my knowledge about the stars from it.
Yes, I believe that astronomy has always had a significant impact on our world
view as it can help us open our eyes, give context to our place in the cosmos and
that can definitely reshape how we see the world.
My favourite star constellation is Orion. It's very easy to spot on winter nights.
Firstly, it has a huge red giant star, which may explode any time soon. Besides, it
has a massive blue star which is very young. On top of that it also has a big
nebula where new stars are being born - so it has everything!
