When this article was written, Wednesday evening (10/04), according to the lunar or lunar system, we have entered the second day of Shawwal. Ramadan is two days away.
The rain fell just before the Maghrib prayers at the mosque were about to start. The sound of raindrops falling on leaves creates a natural orchestration. Pitter-patter, as the British call it. The sound of water falling on the umbrella when coming home adds to the sensation.
Alison Cooper in Does It Rain on Other Planets? on the page How Stuff Works wrote:
“On Earth, we are used to certain weather. Sometimes the weather is unpredictable and scary, but at least we know that everything that falls from the atmosphere and falls to the ground is water in some form. Therefore, you would be forgiven if think ‘water’ when considering the possibility of rain on other planets. However, you would be very wrong – Earth is the only planet that has water in liquid form. There is rain that falls from clouds on other planets, but it’s not water. Not even close .”
Diamond showers fell on Saturn, Neptune and Jupiter, Cooper wrote. Meanwhile on Venus, the rain is a shower of hot sulfuric acid. Be thankful that our Earth has an atmosphere. When we leave Earth’s atmosphere and enter space, it is very empty there, there is no air or atmosphere to form clouds and no water to form clouds, so there is no rain. Even though there is no rain in space, we can find interesting weather on other planets, it was reported Press & Sun-Bulletin.
So, last evening I was one of the 8.1 billion people on Earthof the species that asks the question “Is it from 200 billion trillion stars that is in this universe, there is a solar system with planets like our rainy Earth?”
It’s hard to imagine a solar system with stars Earendel — the most distant star that humans can estimate — at a distance of 28 billion light years from us, one of its planets is showered like Earth. Every drop of rain that falls on leaves, tiles, ground, rivers, and umbrellas – which I use – is still far from enough to be used as a calculation of gratitude for God’s gift called rain. Thank God.
The rain also brought back memories of the early 1990s. The first verse of the song Try to Find Me from the Russian band Gorky Park rises to the surface of memory:
When the rain is pouring down
And no one is around
All the doors are closed
You’re a stranger in this town
Wandering around and you feel lost
A recent interpretation, or rather hit chromeI gave the lyrics of the song earlier:
