True, a night sky unobscured by clouds, filled with stars and ribbons of Borealis can be humbling, as in the words of David from the Psalms:

quote:
"When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers,
The moon and the stars, which You have ordained,
What is man that You are mindful of him"

Beautifully stated, dear Alison. Nothing compares to the awe that surges within our hearts when we get lost in such a nocturnal vision.

Thank you for this magical moment, that makes me want to go stargazing.

Love,
Margherita
