Telescopes and Binoculars

When I was younger I dream of being an astronaut. Celestial bodies and astronomy interests me so much. Our dad has contributed much to this interest because at our early age he would bring us at a nearby beach in the evening for stargazing. He would name for us the constellations he could see. However, we never had a telescope. The first time I’ve used one was just this year 2003. It was my sister in law’s telescope. I had a peak and saw the moon’s craters. It was an awesome experience for me.

If B.boy grows up and shows interests on astronomy, I’ll set aside some money to buy him a telescope. But I’m still not sure because right now his interests were animals and birds. He may be needing bird watching binoculars instead. Hahaha!

    there’s nothing more amazing than the evening sky. bata palang rin ako, gusto ko nang maging astronomer. astronomer lang, hindi astronaut. haha =p i was sooo excited when i had my first (and only) telescope. si kuya yung taga-focus ko nun eh. the moon was beautiful close-up at sobrang saya namin ni kuya nung nakita namen ang jupiter AND ITS FOUR BIGGEST MOONS. wow moment yun.

  2. wow Jupiter! Grabe…siguro maiiyak din ako kung nasilip ko yun up close. Si kuya mo ang magaling maghanap ng mga celestial bodies.
