Let's just keep driving on
All the stars jumping in through the windows
Let's go where we belong
Headed fast as we can for the unknown
You can stay there
And it's not fair
Those were the days when we laughed all the while
When the fireflies
Lit up our skies
Those were the nights when the world made us smile

The Lovell Telescope poking out of the fog. The remaining towers of Fiddler's Ferry (I think) in the background.
From unplanned trip last night as I was nearby it would be rude not too visit especially that the sky was clear.
Peter and Oleg are looking at holiday photos
OLEG:
What are you doing there Peter?
PETER:
I'm looking over there. I thought maybe I'll see my dear princess Rosie and my best friend Scout in Australia. It's a tel...teo....eh .... binoculars.
You can see very far and big with them. But I saw everything in miniature.
OLEG:
Oh...you mean a telescope.
That's because you were looking into the wrong glass. You have to look at the other side of the telescope. Then, when it's dark, you can see the night sky properly. Australia is too far away, you can't see that with the telescope.
PETER:
I do want to see the night sky, are we going to Middelburg again?
OLEG:
Maybe next holiday
By the way, the statue you're sitting on is Mr Hans Lipperhey
Who invented the telescope in 1608.
PETER:
I think that Mr Hans was certainly very good at learning at school

Lors du lancement du télescope spatial Hubble il y a 35 ans, personne n'aurait pu imaginer à quel point il allait transformer notre vision de l'espace. Lancé le 24 avril 1990, le télescope poursuit aujourd'hui sa mission. Pour célébrer son anniversaire, la NASA a publié quatre images récentes prises par Hubble, qui prouvent sa pérennité, même après trois décennies !

When the launched 35 years ago, no one would have guessed how much it would shape the way we view space. Launched on April 24, 1990, the telescope continues its mission today. To celebrate its anniversary, NASA released four recent images taken by Hubble that prove its staying power even after three decades !

the Parkes radio telescope has been in operation since 1961 and continues to be at the forefront of astronomical discovery thanks to regular upgrades.
Astronomers from across Australia and around the world utilise the Parkes radio telescope to undertake world-class astronomical science. Affectionately known as ’the Dish’, the telescope operates 24 hours a day, every day of the year.

Nothing extraordinary about this post except that this might be my last upload for this month as tomorrow onwards, I'll be on vacation to India for Diwali.
Since I have become so addicted to flickr so I still donno how I'll manage without visiting your uploads and obviously without uploading some new pics :)
But I think, it is a much deserved break from my routine busy life. I hope you have a great month...Keep clicking and keep uploading. I'll be back to visit them as soon as possible. :)
And yes, Wish u all a very happy and prosperous Diwali.
For my friends who don't know what Diwali is, here is a description from Wiki:
'Diwali (also spelled Devali in certain regions) or Deepawali, popularly known as the "festival of lights", is an important festival in Hinduism, Jainism, and Sikhism, celebrated for different reasons, occurring between mid-October and mid-November. For Hindus, Diwali is one of the most important festivals of the year and is celebrated in families by performing traditional activities together in their homes. For Jains, Diwali marks the attainment of moksha or nirvana by Mahavira in 527 BC. For Sikhs, Diwali is celebrated as Bandhi Chhor Diwas (The Celebration of Freedom), and celebrates the release from prison of the sixth guru, Guru Hargobind, who also rescued 52 Hindu kings held captive by Mughal Emperor with him in the Gwalior Fort in 1619.
Deepavali is an official holiday in India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Mauritius, Guyana, Trinidad & Tobago, Suriname, Malaysia, Singapore, and Fiji.
The name "Diwali" is a contraction of "Deepavali" (Sanskrit: दीपावली Dīpāvalī), which translates into "row of lamps". Diwali involves the lighting of small clay lamps (diyas or dīpas) in Sanskrit: दीप) filled with oil to signify the triumph of good over evil. During Diwali, all the celebrants wear new clothes and share sweets and snacks with family members and friends.
Diwali commemorates the return of Lord Rama, along with Sita and Lakshmana, from his 14-year-long exile and vanquishing the demon-king Ravana. In joyous celebration of the return of their king, the people of Ayodhya, the Capital of Rama, illuminated the kingdom with earthen diyas and by bursting firecrackers.'

If I read the map correctly, this is a photo of Telescope Peak,the highest point within Death Valley National Park at 3366m above sea level.
Dad's Taxi duties very nearly torpedoed all of my plans yesterday evening, but I finally managed to escape just before sunset using the tried and tested 'Monty needs his walk!' excuse.
We had some quite intense showers in these parts that cleared very suddenly. This left a very definite line of dark clouds that were lit up by the setting sun.
In a flash of inspiration I made a detour from my intended walk at Croome down to the nearby radio telescope at Defford. The dish and the workings underneath are painted white, and I thought they would look good under dark skies in the fading light.
It turned out to be quite a productive half hour or so.

I'm still practicing my skills on photographing planets. And it's very difficult to focus through a dim image in the viewfinder.
