Strange Light in the Sky


I awoke this morning to a strange light in the sky. It was much too bright to look at. The sky was blue in color, and that is also very strange - it has been gray in color for so long - nearly two weeks. I was really puzzled, so went and got several of my astronomy books and started searching. The object in the sky is apparently called the "Sun" and it is a nearby star, and all life on Earth depends on it. It is ninety-three million miles away and yet it puts out so much energy, that even from so far away, it keeps us all warm, and helps grow the food we need. I am so glad that the Sun has returned to our sky.
