Capturing the Milky Way

Hey guys! Next week will be our Finals, and our schedule is very hectic. So I'm going to post now before I forget, again. Last October 8, the "Blood Moon" phenomena occurred. I went outside to check it out. Ilocos Norte was one of the places that was lucky enough to have an unobstructed view of the celestial phenomenon. What I saw was more beautiful. The Moon was in the East (from where we are). I went outside to the west first. I noticed that there weren't any clouds present, and I could see more stars than I could see before. Then I went to look for the moon. There it was, in all of it's glory, disproving that it's made of cheese. Then I went back to look at the stars instead. I took time to just stare at the sky, because it's so beautiful. I can't help to think that I'm actually looking at the past!
