Astronomy is a natural science that deals with the study of celestial objects (such as stars, planets, comets, nebulae, star clusters and galaxies) and phenomena that originate outside the atmosphere of Earth (such as cosmic background radiation). It is concerned with the evolution, physics, chemistry, meteorology, and motion of celestial objects, as well as the formation and development of the universe.
Astronomy is one of the oldest sciences. Prehistoric cultures left behind astronomical artifacts such as the Egyptian monuments, Nubian monuments and Stonehenge, and early civilizations such as the Babylonians, Greeks, Chinese, Indians, Iranians and Maya performed methodical observations of the night sky. However, the invention of the telescope was required before astronomy was able to develop into a modern science. Historically, astronomy has included disciplines as diverse as astrometry, celestial navigation, observational astronomy, the making of calendars, and astrology, but professional astronomy is nowadays often considered to be synonymous with astrophysics.
All I know is that this falling star will die
For a moment light the sky and lead me home
I don't know why this task has been so hard
We've spent out time apart but not alone
This is what I have been given I hope that you can
I hope that you can understand there are reasons beyond ours
The creator holds the stars up in the sky
But you are by far bright and shining star in the sky tonight
This is what I have been given the hardest part is living
With leaving you alone
This is what I have been given the hardest part is living
With leaving you alone
Alone alone, we're not alone
Alone alone, we're not alone
Just like all the rest of them I can't bring you down
You're a million miles from here
But you are by far the brightest shining star in the sky tonight
This is what I have been given the hardest part is living
