Anatomy Of The Morning Phenomena
Travelling between the time zones is by far the best experience an
international traveler can get. It is quite easy for a curious traveler like me
to get boggled with the several amazing natural phenomena one could happen to
experience during your journey between two far away places on the planet earth.
We often have been listening since our childhood days about the shape and size
of earth, the sun being a stationary in space and the moon being a satellite of
the earth which keeps on orbiting around the earth.
That Amazing Moment When Night Transforms into a Day |
A Day Far far Away |
While many of the travelers are struggling to grab a power nap to battle
their jetlags, how many of us really bother to open the airplane window and
bother to observe the beautiful experiences out there in the sky wide open?
Probably, quite a few of us. I often get amazed by the fact as to how different
places on earth observe day and night at the same time.
There are often times when I have been stupidly calling my friends and
family members to verify if there is really a daylight out there in India while
I am located far off from home. How could some place of earth observe such a
hot, sunny afternoon when at the same time some other place on the same planet
experiences a pitch dark black night which seems like it never observed a day
before. I know we take facts for granted and I know that the earth is like a
big ball and the sun is like a big electric bulb in dark space. But, observing
this happening in it’s live environment is an amazing experience, all thanks to
the technology of the recent times.
Amazing experience observing the night transforming
into a day
From the surface of the earth, it is quite an experience observing the dark
night sky gradually turning lighter and lighter until it turns into a sky with
broad daylight. And we have been observing this phenomenon since we were a
child - the earth rotates around it’s own axis causing day and night. Nights
turning into days and days turning into nights is quite a daily experience but
have you wondered how it would feel like observing both the day and the night
at the same time. Yes, it is this exact moment when your airplane reached to a
point travelling through a dark night and you are able to see the first ray of
light at the horizons while you realize you are still in the dark.

Gradually, as you move forward, this ray of light becomes brighter and
brighter transforming almost everything around you into a beautiful aura of
colors. That is what we call a beautiful morning. Experiencing this from a
30,000 feet above the surface is quite an experience.
