Stars...

Watched a few space movies recently, from space chimps to Star wars to wall.E and it got me thinking about space and beyond.

Everyday walking at night, out in the field during field camp, sleeping in the blue mountains in Sydney. The night sky never fails to amaze me, the stars seems to be everywhere, it makes us humans feel that we are so so small...the feeling of the wonderful lights in the dark sky...appreciating the ability to take in the wonderful sights. the stars...always seems so magical,so enchanting...always so up there in the sky...impossible to reached to...we,humans on earth spent so much of our time, even from generations to generations of homo sapiens, we continue to study and understand the stars, developed new technology and vehicles(aka space-crafts) to reach to them...but sometimes never able to reach them( be it to far or various space-weather conditions). Even in times of war and illness, the stars never fail to fascinate mankind, no time to learn about them, mankind will still find ways to preserve them in his memory with inventions as well as to keep in 'touch' with them(ie. the giant hubble telescope in the USA). Somehow no matter how much time and effort that we put into understanding and learning about them, our knowledge is just only a speck of space dust in the entire universe out there. We are down here on earth and these cosmos are up up there out of this world, the difficulty lies here to understanding these stars. However, given the strong will and in a way defiance if i may put it, mankind will never give up on his search for the knowledge and understanding of the stars. There had been many who had suffer a lot in the search for it, and scientists whom had met up with financial problems or wadsoever had given up on it, but there are some whom will be able to make it...to find more pieces to fix the puzzle. Maybe we will reach the echleon of hyperspace=)
