First time Hubble

Today I saw Hubble cross the sky for the first time. Don't remember how or exactly when I got into astronomy, constellations and stuff, but it is something that soothes me, even if I don't know exactly what I'm looking at. I think I bought my binocular in 2010, probably it's he's turning 10 by july. Trying not to get too cliché here, but there's something special in staring at the dark sky and slowly seeing more stars as your eyes get used to the lack of light. I would call it a melancholic joy, if that's possible. We are tiny indeed.
