City Notebook – Lunar Eclipse Watch

Lunar Eclipse was visible in Karachi from seven to nine yestrday. It was awe-inspiring. It was beautiful. Such astronomical events put the context back in order. ‘Looking up into the night sky is looking into infinity – distance is incomprehensible and therefore meaningless’*. The way our worries and ambition are. In the larger context.

The next lunar eclipse can be witnessed in 2018 in Karachi. Will take pictures again. Inshallah. God willing.
