Cosmic Multicultural Bucharest in the Pandemic (168):
News in the Solar System
By Andrei Dorian Gheorghe (astro-photo-poem) and Florin Alexandru Stancu (design)
In September 2021
I tried a few forays into the “planetary” geocentrism of Aristotle and Ptolemy:
Jupiter and Saturn (September 7),
the “planet” Moon (September 9),
an ascent to the “planet” Sun (September 11)…
Also on September 11
I made an expedition to the Youth Park
to catch Venus and Mercury,
but because of the clouds
I could only catch “the planet of beauty”.
Then some fireworks brought me back
to the 21st century…
and I called September 11, 2021...
the day I missed the first planet from the Sun.
