It is the last bit of September and it is Autumn. I looked up at the sky and saw some clouds in the sky. I thought to myself how old are those clouds.
You could say well, it formed 2 days ago above the ocean and got blown across the land. You could also say the cloud formed thousands of years ago and keeps growing and shrinking over and over again as it moves across the sky. The cloud attracts condensation to it, then some of the cloud falls out of the sky as rain, then it gains more condensation and then it rains again in an endless cycle of growth and loss. Perhaps two clouds merge together then a small part of it fragments away and grows into more bigger clouds. If that is the way clouds are then perhaps in a way they're like life forms.
I wonder if someone ever made a drone that followed one cloud from start to finish, perhaps the whole of the cloud would fall as rain and it would be replaced by another cloud; or they would find that the cloud never gets depleted but just grows and shrinks over and over again year after year. Maybe a satellite would work better.
Maybe the cloud I look at now is the same cloud I saw when I was 7 years old. Perhaps it can persist for years.
Another thought I had is why isn't Chandrayaan waking up, I checked the blog and it shows they are trying to make contact with the probe. I could become melodramatic and shout "Chandrayaaaaaaan threeeee, wake up, waaiiike uuuuuppp". Perhaps the probe is stuck in sleep mode.
