Winter Night at Pic du Midi
Credit & Copyright: Alain Sallez, David Romeuf (Université Lyon 1)
This dreamlike view looking south from the historic mountain top Pic du Midi Observatory combines moonlit domes, a winter night sky, and the snowy peaks of the French Pyrenees.
Encroaching on the night, lights from the La Mongie ski resort illuminate the mountain slopes nearby while the glow along the distant horizon is from urban areas in southern France and Spain.
The night sky features stars of the constellations Orion and Gemini with a bright planet Mars very near the top edge, left of center. The three prominent domes visible (from left to right) house a 0.6 meter telescope reserved for amateur astronomers, a 1 meter telescope that was used to support the Apollo lunar landing missions, and the new, Sun-watching CLIMSO.
Adding this place to my list of places to visit!!! I love staring at the sky and stars, and this place is just :O
I’ve been going in and out of Changi airport for the past year and a half but I’ve never seen this slide. The metal loops do look vaguely familiar but I have no idea where it is. I read it’s in the arrival hall at Terminal 3 but I’ve never seen it!! I’ve been looking for it. There has got to be a day that I see and get on this. Srsly, where can you find something like this in any other airport? This is one airport I won’t mind having a long haul at…unlike the Dubai and Doha airports. So boring. LOL.
my friend that I’ll hide by the name of Rachel Ray-ryl for now (you’ll know why later on)
She says that, based on my stories - then her experience on traveling with me, people just approach me out of nowhere to ask questions or just talk to me. For some reason, I never noticed it until she said so. I told her:
You know I’m generally aloof, right?
Rachel Anne: Hmmm…you look friendly eh.
Me: Maybe it’s my happy aura? hahahahaha!!!
She stopped there. She said she suddenly got a headache. Thank you :))
