Living in the universe?
by Barbora Misakova


I have a little problems with remembering all my dreams. I know I dream every night, but when I wake up in the morning I can't remember anything. And that's a pity, because some of my dreams are really cool. The last time I remember, I was dreaming about living in the universe. Don't know why I had such a dream, but the truth is, that lot of people used to think and sing about it, and some of them even believe it is possible. Living in the universe or at some particular planet is a question which is occupying people's mind for a long time. Not only scientists of 21st century but also antic philosophers were thinking about the life out there. Such a big space where the planets are flying freely, where the sun and moon are shining in the calm and quiet melody. Infinite questions and probable predictions lead lot of scientists to long lasting research projects. Questions such as "Is it possible to live on the Mars?" or "What are those blurs on the Moon?" were always fascinating people. And just the question if is it possible to live at one of these planets is the main driving mechanism of all researches. Another research just began. On June 30, Cassini with his co-operators started his two-year tour which could bring another answers about one of the most mysterious planet & Saturn. Except Saturn's ring which is full of answers by itself, Cassini was a witness of several electrical storms there. These so called monster storms are not called so just like that. They are able to produce 10,000 times more powerful lightning than any storm we could see on Earth, and they can span thousands of miles. Well honestly, I like storms but only when I am sitting safely at home and drinking hot black tea with lemon. I admit that I have a big respect. That's why the idea I am living on a planet where every single storm is much more powerful than the strongest one on the Earth leads me to nervous breakdown. Of course scientist are making other researches and they are not only trying to find out if the life there is possible. But in their deep subconscious they are looking an answer on this question as well.
