Observing infinity.

Knowing that I am looking into the past. Anything I see happened long ago.

Of course it's a combination of many things. Seeing the Milky Way amazes me, knowing that we are part of it. The constellations, as they bring back the beliefs of ancient cultures. Deep space objects, especially remnants of supernovae. Seeing the birth of stars, as in the Pleides. And, if I'm lucky enough, auroras.

There is not just what you see. There is an overwhelming feeling. I feel wrapped in the sky, and yet it scares me. Infinity is scary, but then I go inside my warm kitchen, and I've already forgotten about it.

It's compelling. I get enough goosebumps that I am always drawn back to it.

In one sentence? I'd sum it up as witnessing the mystery of infinity, and the huge distances which result in me gazing into the past.

With naked eye the moon, star patterns, star Sirius, planet Venus etc. Through binocular I love to see all star clusters, nebulae, Andromeda etc. The sight of moon craters, crescent Venus, Jupiter with it four moons which keep changing their locations every hour, Saturn with its majestic rings are amazing through telescope. ofcourse occasional eclipses, comet appearance and meteor showers are extraordinary.

Its like looking in a mirror only more intriguing because you see yourself in another form. All of the light you see is familiar and the whole sky is vibrating like its alive

If you mean while stargazing, then star clusters are always amazing. Binoculars can find them fairly easily, and if you have a telescope, you can see plenty of them, even from areas with light pollution.

There is so much of it. There is so much beauty in it. it mostly works well together. And I llike to wish upon the first star I see at night. I guess that was not too in depth,

Just the stars and so so many more stars. We do not get to see any in the city, it is great to get out into the countryside and see such beauty.

How truly small and yet, powerful, I feel in the presence of the vast infinite universe.
