Glinton?-I presume?
The Sun comes out loud and clear and the Marina wears an abandoned look after the tourist packed Friday and Saturday weekend. Sunday is a working day here in Dubai. It is a bustling 31 degrees celsius out in the open!
All in all a beautiful day to be in Dubai with the prospect of a new long day for exploring this exciting city!
Sun Glint
Our balcony in Dubai faces west towards the Dubai Marina and the sun’s first glint is off the skyscrapers opposite us.

We are in the Goldilocks Zone
Remember the Goldilocks story. She did not like Papa Bear’s porridge because it was too hot nor Mama Bear’s porridge because it was too cold; Baby Bear’s porridge was just the right temperature. Earth’s distance from the Sun and many other factors places us in the Baby Bear Goldilocks Zone. If we were any closer the Sun would drill holes through brick walls as in the picture above.
A Million Earths Can Fit Into the Sun
1391000 kilometers away the sun can fit in 1,300,000 earths into its large stomach!
Ra, Surya, Helios, Utu or Sol-Day9
Day 9 of 3650–September 30
TOO BRIGHT FOR DIRECT VIEWING TODAY
Call it Ra, call it Surya, Helios, Utu or Sol but the sun is at just the right distance for life to be sustained on Earth. A little closer and we would all dissolve into eternity. 5 billion years into the future the sun will indeed begin to expand and die. While dying it will proceed to devastate the nearest planets including earth. All life will end but you need not sweat over it as it is still 5,000,000,000 years away. Then the sun will turn into a red sun.
Look at the Muscles on That One-Day 8

First Blush and Full Blast-Day 7
September 27, 2018. It is like waiting for a rock star to appear onstage. With the first blush fans in the shape of birds go crazy and rush hither and thither announcing the imminent arrival of the sun. Even the ugly building coming up in front of me cannot hide the full blast of the new sun. One can almost hear the opening drum roll in Also Sprach Zarathustra.
