Thinking about Aether teaching Phantom about the space race, and about the animals we sent into space before we sent people.
Phantom would would absolutely sob at Laika's story, relating almost too deeply to her. Abandoned by humanity and cast into a wild dark unknown, all while holding onto hope for so much more. He would go out at nights and sit on the opposite side of the courtyard from Aether, not to disrupt his own prayers to the stars.
Phantom would search the sky each night for Canis Major, before spilling his heart to the stars. The first time he did, he realized why Aether would go out and convene with the great beyond each night. The catharsis, the tears, the ability to share all of you with something far greater. Watching the stars twinkle, as if in response to the cries and pleas you make. The blinking, almost like Morse code, that told you it was all going to be okay. That you had no other choice.

yesterday I thought that the whole astronomy lesson would be spent making maps inside, but then the sky cleared and we went out to look through telescopes. we looked at the double star Mizar and Alcor and Mizar was also visible as two stars, then we looked at the Pleiades, the double star cluster in Perseus NGC 869 and NGC 884 and the owl cluster NGC 457.
and I even tried to somehow participate in all this, carefully watched how telescopes were assembled, asked what we were looking at now, how to measure, etc. and it really was more interesting than standing on the sidelines and not understanding what was happening. I even think maybe in the next lesson I’ll ask how to properly look for objects through a telescope and try to do it
and it also inspired me to take astrophotography again

natsumugi week day 1 - fire
a tribute to one of my favourite stories, pleiades night. i really love the metaphor of natsume and tsumugi creating something new from the ashes of the past... new beginnings and starting over

Aaaaaand I also got a bit of a closer shot at Pleiades, but the damn cold didn't allow me for longer exposures, but i am getting there at least. You can faintly see the blue nebula the cluster is known for. Got a pretty good shot at Andromeda, but again the exposure is too low (and for whatever reason the focus that sucks)

The Pleiades Star Cluster - June 20th, 1995.
“The Pleiades star cluster, M45, is one of the brightest star clusters visible in the northern hemisphere. It consists of many bright, hot stars that were all formed at the same time within a large cloud of interstellar dust and gas. The blue haze that accompanies them is due to very fine dust which still remains and preferentially reflects the blue light from the stars.”
