that thing before we continue. Many times this is expressed via the unexpected desire to 
study something we might have had the chance, but we before we never took it. For me 
such thing is astronomy. It appeals to me in so many ways, the mystery that accompanies 
the science of the universe has always attracted me in some magic way but I never took 
my chance. Now, if I am given such, I will not hesitate much before I take and below are 
some of my reasons for doing so. 
Astronomy is the science that tries to give us a more profound knowledge about the 
Universe - the unimaginably big world that we are just a tiny part of. It give us a better 
look at worlds that we've never imagined exist and within the whole picture it tries to 
explain our own existence the way it is. Everyone of us has looked at the starry sky at 
night and at least a brief thought has come through out head of what's there, what are all 
this flickering lights and is somebody waiting for us millions of lights years away. 
Thoughts like this have always made us feel a little bit better in our existence, a little bit 
less lonely in our universe and science like Astronomy is that one that prove our hopes 
true, to make the dreams reality. 
On the other hand, Astronomy helps us understand better who we are, where do we come 
from, what is our place in the big picture and how do we function as an entity within it. 
Let's take for example the studies on the structure of the matter in the universe. 
Astronomers have proven the existence of substances that we considered unthinkable 
before and the knowledge they get from this inventions helps is go beyond the visible part 
in our own world, find the secrets of the matter that are hidden deeply in its existence on 
earth. We shouldn't also forget the recent discoveries regarding the Big Bang, considered 
the creation point of the Universe the way we know it today, and the help they provide us 
on understanding our origin as living beings. It helps us understand where are we heading 
for.
