Halloween is coming.... and this year is special

But what do we know about Halloween? Since the fifth century B.C. Halloween has been celebrated as a cross-quarter day, a day halfway between an equinox and a solstice. Nowadays, Halloween modern celebration retains historic roots in dressing up to scare away the spirit of the dead. This is the reason why lot of people wear fancy dresses that day. As you know, we are learning about Astronomy in our clases in these days. In my opinion it would be funny to dress up your favourite planet, moon, comet, galaxy or nebula as a Halloween ahd write a short story about your character. I will put in this blog the best drawings and your stories.

But this year the 31st of October is a special day. It is the Dark Matter Day. Most of the matter in the Universe is Dark Matter. But... do you know what Dark Matter is? Never mind!! Time to look for information!!! Please, write your results as comments.
Have a Happy Halloween.

In space was a very standard day for the Moon less for the Earth because it was Halloween. One day of disguise, eating candies and pass it very well. The Moon bends to the land how well it tas happening. I asked the Earth that it is Halloween and it answered that Halloween is a party where people disguise themselves as terrifying beings and they go to ask for sweets by the houses. And the Moon said that if it was a party superamusing and that party of America. The Moon very astonished asked to the Earth if you could joing and the Earth told that she was delighted but the Earth had to disguise herself. The Moon prepared a disguise of a bat and the Earth was very happy and she told the Moon that if someday there is a party they can disguise together and the enchanted Moon said yes and this story is over. Happy Halloween to the Moon.

Moon Charpy

This was once, in a country far away about 9000 years ago or so. A wizard from the country of Fancer made the moon dissapear. The inhabitants could not sleep. It was impossible. One of the girl or a magician or someone to make to the moon return the siquires ran to look for them. The next two days they brought a witch named Charpy and mixed up several spells and made the Moon appear. Everyone happy was made to sleep from that day in the country of Fancer. The moon was called Moon Charpy.

Every Halloween the children of that country draw the moon with the charpy face the witch who saved them.

The sky learned of this and the cast was become in a very big star that gives a lot of light (the sun). Since then, he follows up by ignoring what was told.
