WHAT IS KNIGHT SKY?

No matter how far you have progressed in your development as an amateur astronomer, there is always one important moment we all return to. That was the first time we went out where you could see the sky clearly and take the sky at night. For urban dwellers, this is a profound revelation as if we have found aliens living among us. Most of us are not aware of a large panorama of lights shining in the clear night sky when no city lights are present. Surely we all love the advanced knowledge of reading the sky using telescopes with different sizes and powers of telescopes. But I bet you can remember as a child that for the first time you see a bright night sky with amazing clusters of stars, meters and a comet that moves with the exposure of far-flung dots to as many as you can count. The best way to repeat the miracle of that moment is to get out of the world with your child or have never had this experience and be present at that moment when he looked up and said that very powerful word. only one could summarize their feelings as they gazed upon the magnificent sky. That word says - "Wow". Probably the most astonishing truth about what a child looks at is also the most difficult to understand the magnitude of what is beyond him and what he stands for. The very fact that almost every dot in the sky is another star or celestial body in the Earth itself, not twice or ten times but in the elements of hundreds and thousands, would be a breath of fresh air in it. children. Children have enough trouble imagining the size of the earth itself, not to mention something as unique as outer space. But when it comes to astronomy, we do so at best if we fall into the deep and deep levels of fear that we see in the night sky. Some amazing facts about what children are looking at can add to the bumps they already have as they look into the sky. Facts like ... * Our sun is just one of many galaxies called the Milky Way galaxy that contains over 100 billion stars or more. Show them that the hundred billion is 100,000,000,000 and you will see the jaws definitely stick out. * Milky Way was just one of billions of galaxies each containing billions of stars in it. In fact, the Milky Way is just one of many galaxies. * If you wanted to drive across the Milky Way, it would take you 100,000 years. But you can't get there when you drive the speed limit. You have to drive five trillion, eight hundred million miles a year to cross that speed. * Scientists estimate that the Milky Way is 14 billion years old. These little pleasurable facts should have a profound effect on the origin of the universe and the possibility of space travel or of the existence of other planets. Would you challenge your children to calculate that if all the stars in the Milky Way were in support of nine planets and that if one of them were not as stable as the earth, how much more would life be possible for another? I think you will see real joy when they try to use those numbers. Such a conversation can be fun, exciting, and full of questions. Don’t be too quick to close their minds as this is the birth of the lifelong love of the stars they face. And if you were there for the first time when they saw that night sky, you would also feel your own great moment as a child. And it may start a new interest in astronomy for you too.
