Nice work!
Saw your msn nick, so paid a visit :)

A constructive comment: The white text (on the right) is a bit hard to read because of the light background. You could do something about it.

Thats all ! View all comments by Manas

its beautiful. How quickly time flies - i remember the first time i landed on your blog - I think it was version 3 or 4. Shimmery Sparkles - Evidence of My Existence. I guess this layouts a little bit more moody - at the same time has a blend of the old purplish theme as well as new sidebar on the right. Have been so used to seeing your sidebar on the left all these months and years.

astronomy is a great subject. to read about, to learn and to understand. only goes to make us humans feel so small at times when I gaze at the stars out at see. stars that burn for millions of year (theoretically) while we can only rush about with our little lives on an insignificant planet in the galaxy in astronomical terms

someone once told me that all the interesting stuff is left out of the syllabus. everything boring, miscontrued and generally outdated in modern physics is taught to us. Hey, newton’s law of gravitation is WRONG for the orbit of the planet mercury you know? Only explained perfectly by Einstein’s General Relativity.

I like the star-like dots as the sub-background of the sidebar. Its unique. Once again, I have to applaud your visual creativity and web-computing know-how View all comments by alwyn

Some FaCtS about the night sky in S’pore.

1. The most easily seen constellation is Orion, most commonly known as the Hunter.

2. Just look up and when you see 3 stars connected in a straight line, that is Orion.

3. The 3 stars are actually the waist; you can also see the legs, the left and right arms and the shield. Sadly, the club remains unseen.

4. To the left is Gemini, or the Twins. The brighter stars are clearly visible. That’s about all the constellations that can be seen. Sad, isn’t it?

5. Some stars appear red. I do not know the actual reason; heard that it’s due to their temperature. Look at the right arm of Orion.

6. Within Taurus, there’s this cluster of stars known as the 7 sisters; they’re shaped like a "V". One of the stars is red too.

7. Not a fact; just a personal opinion. My favourite constellation is Andromedia. Partly due to a Jap movie that I’ve watched in the past.

Take care of yourself. I will be graduating in a few weeks’ time. Time flies. Things changes. Stars will never change; if diamonds are forever, stars live to outshine them.

CIao! View all comments by Kelvin

I’m sorry.

Apparently, I’ve much to learn about the night sky. Orion, Taurus and Gemini are prominent constellations at some point of time in the night. During other times, you can see other constellations too, including your zodiac sign, Leo, characterised by a backward inverted question mark or else known as a sickle. View all comments by Kelvin
