Perseid meteor shower
The peak of "Perseid meteor shower" is around the corner! You are cordially invited to join the Perseids Watch on 13th August, at Gunung Ledang,Tangkak. As for this specific trip, we are not only there to watch meteor shower but to sight for more deep-sky objects in summersky. Before midnight, it's the highlight of Jupiter while the red planet, Mars will appear in Aries after 2am.
Perseid meteor shower" is predicted to be rich in August this year. According to the past calculation and prediction, the ZHR (zenithal hourly rate) of Perseids" will peak up to 70 meteors. For the past 20 years, it never disappoints the global meteor watchers and this year of "Perseids" show is predicted to peak up to 100 meteors within an hour averagely.This event is specifically designed and hosted because of this nature phenomenon that can be easily carried out and experienced by members of public as well as our enthusiasts. What we need is a wide field environment of which is safe to access and without light pollution. Apart from the environment, the First Quarter Moon will set at 1am that cause no hassle in watching perseids.
On the 13th night, a talk concerning how to hunt for sky treasures with a small telescope by own effort, especially a newtonian reflector with aperture at 4-inch or more. The treasures are star clusters, nebulae and galaxies, such as Lagoon Nebula (M8) at Sagittarius, Butterfly Cluster (M6) and Ptolemy's Cluster (M7) at Scorpius and Coathanger Cluster at Sagitta as well. Besides, Great Red Spot (a cloud spot looks like an big eye) Transit of Jupiter is visible when nightfalls. The red planet, Mars will also appear after 2am and which would reveal details by a decent magnification for its polar ice cap.

last paper before holiday & first trimester
On 7 Oct, I will take the last paper of the final exam for the first trimester since I enter MMU at June 2005. I still have one whole day to prepare it but I do not have confident to do it well in the exam. After finish exam, I will finish my first trimester in MMU.
In the first trimester, I know many friends from different state and place. Nice to meet you all in MMU! From registration day to orientation week, first day enter in my new group until I join some club in MMU, I really learn a lot and know many friends.
For me, this trimester really meaningful. In Nite Safari (8 July 2005) organized by ANC, we go to zoo Melaka at night. This was my first time go to zoo Melaka. We saw a lot of animals there. I realise that many animals are unsleeping at night. They are active at night.
Er Hu class that I join every Wednesday. Why I will join Er Hu class? This maybe influence by my housemate because now in my house have 3 people learn it include me. I feel so excited to learn it. I really want to say thank you to my two housemates who call me to learn it together.
Bon Odori (16 July 2005) organised by Japanese Language Society. What is Bon Odori? Bon Odori is a festival of Japanese people to celebrate the death people. Bon Odori is something like Qing Ming in our Chinese culture. At there, they were selling a lot of Japanese food such as sushi and so on. After eating, we all danced together in the field.
Planetarium and fireflies trip (30 July 2005) organised by ANC. I really enjoy myself in the trip because this is the first day MMU started the mid term holiday for the first day. We went to Kuala Selangor to see the fireflies. I never seen so much fireflies in my life except in this trip. We were seeing thousand or million of the fireflies. I will regret if I didn’t join this trip.
Start gazing (13 August 2005) organised by ANC. We went to Puteri Gunung Ledang. I had seen Mars, a lot of meteor that day. This was my first time watch so many meteor. It really very beautiful but very fast disappears in our eyes. The meteors only pass through just for 1 or 2 second. I felt that 1 or 2 second already enough for me to see it because the meteors were very beautiful. The meteors are name "Perseid meteor shower".
To be continue of my life in first trimester......
