Week 3, Exercise 5

This photo of a comet (http://www.flickr.com/photos/esaheki/368180116/) reminds me of a night more than 30 years ago. I was drifting off to sleep, when suddenly I saw a bright light through my bedroom curtains. It kept getting bigger and brighter, bigger and brighter. 'til I thought surely it was going to crash through my window. And then just as suddenly it was gone. I have to assume it was a meteor that fell to earth and it had to be some miles away, because there was no sound associated with the phenomenon. Look at all the "stars" in this photo. Doesn't the concept of infinite space just boggle the mind?
