I Saw Venis, Mars & Jupiter In The Night Sky

Post by metalfex »

The title pretty much sums it up, I saw Venis earlier this week, I think it was monday night, and today I saw Jupiter & Mars, I know my science and after lots of research and observation Im sure it is Mars & Jupiter. I also took pics with my webcam of Venus and digicam for mars and jupiter. Really excited as im into spacey stuff, just wish one day I could travel into space. btw does anyone know what space sounds like? the noises? somehow ive always had this thought that space has some weird strange noises, maybe someone might have recorded what its like in the space and there might be soundclips too (my dad told that its not really quiet up there :S )

post your sighting stories.

i took a few astronomy classes at Iowa State University. one of em we went and observed on the roof of one of the buildings and we saw a close up of saturn. it was unforgettable. u could see the rings and the planet clear as day. as far as the noise in space, from what i remember from my classes its completely silent. any noise would be radio waves and the like. no real sound waves

i went to visit this:

but we had bad weather and i didn't really see it, i only noticed it becoming dark... shame.

other than that i don't really have seen much. my dad woke me up when i was young at night to see a comet, i think it was halley-bob (or how is it called). that was pretty cool. i also saw two planets clear in the morning (without telescope). probably venus and mars. just dots in the sky but clearly not a star.

oh yes and i saw one of those nights where many fallen stars appear... very cool.

I can confirm that there is absolutely no sound in space, since there is no matter for the soundwaves to vibrate in.
