Scenery of Falcon 9
This video captured footage of Musk's Falcon 9 rocket flying through the sky. Under the cloak of a deep night sky, Elon Musk's Falcon 9 rocket streaks across the heavens like a shooting star, trailing a magnificent wake of pale-blue light, reminiscent of a nocturnal galaxy. Yet, alongside this futuristic spectacle, a colossal airship drifts gently by. This relic, a poetic symbol of a bygone century, passes the rocket that represents the zenith of human innovation. This fleeting encounter places the romantic silhouette of the old era and the bold ambition of emergent technology in breathtaking juxtaposition within the same frame of the night, creating a mesmerizing, dreamlike contrast.
These photographs were shot by me when I went stargazing with the Astronomy Club in my school and went to Tibet to study Tibetan astronomy. We can see the vast expanse of the firmament resembles a sheet of black velvet saturated with ink, upon which countless stars stream down, densely scattered like sand and brilliant as cosmic dust.
