Astronomical Spectacular


The sky tonight is really amazement to me. While walking out of the school building, the fresh air and clear sky eased my tensed mind. I looked up and surprisingly found a big smile on the dark sky. Above the curvy moon, there were two shining stars that formed the shape of a smiling face.

On the next day, the news said that it was a special astronomical spectacular that seldom happens. The two shining stars were Venus and Jupiter. This phenomenon happens only when two fixed stars and the moon go very closely. Coincidentally, they formed the shape of a smileing face. Besides, this sign would not exist for too long, maybe only a couple of hours.

I used my cell phone to take a picture of it, but two mega pixels was not enough to take a clear photo at night.

However, I think I was lucky to see the fantastic scenery at a right time. This took away all my vexations at that night.
