What’s There in the Name-“William Shakespeare” 

I am not sure as what Shakespeare meant by this perhaps Naming was the only thing which human have done in their life story which is taught as history when they were not able to name they drew whatever they have seen what they wanted to say show whoever they were whatever they may be they knew that someday people will try to understand as what is that they wanted to say or what it is human behaviour is more incline towards mystery and mystery lead to myth this could be possible as human era has seen  mythical ear too regardless of the Name has one biggest and vast technology which backed the name origin for Example A rose is called Gulab in Hindi and Rose in Arabic (ارتفع) in Bangla (Rōja)  In a Chinese simplified Méiguī I can keep translating this one word with over 6200 Languages available throughout or across the world !!! Yes exactly over 6200 Languages to read write and spoken and for the matter of fact language itself is a science “Science of Keeping Record” Information has to be passed on why all available information was not passed on I would disagree to this part as the one who has information will find out way to pass on the information so that masses can be benefited if it is beneficial or masses should be aware as what need to be done if ever met with and encounter Human discovery helped them in maintaining records however the secret of language was not passed on today Sanskrit is one of the most in demand language as translation are giving outrageous information which can change the face of modern science its talk about
Gravity was discovered by Sir. Isaac Newton However your concept might change 

Gravity as per Ancient Astronomers 

Many astronomers had formulated ideas about gravity and gravitation. Brahmagupta in the 7th century had stated that "Bodies fall towards the earth as it is in the nature of the earth to attract bodies, just as it is in the nature of water to flow". About a hundred years, another astronomer Varahamihira had stated that there should be a force that keeps bodies stuck to the earth, and also keeps heavenly bodies in their determined places. Thus they knew of the existence of some force that governs the falling of objects to the earth, their remaining stationary after having once fallen and as also determining the positions which heavenly bodies occupy.

Welcome to Hum Traveller

Moon has been central part of human civilisation human observation toward this solar body had grew stronger because of the moon changing its forms and coming up in new full moon. Every Full moon, New Moon  is been celebrated around the world there are plenty of festival those are followed in the full moon or new moon phase  every tribes, civilisation has customs and ritual to be followed during the full moon or no moon days  

This new moon will bring Ramadan along with it thousand of million Muslim will observe the fast during this month 

On this day the Moon will be in a Waxing Crescent Phase. A Waxing Crescent is the first Phase after the New Moon and is a great time to see the features of the moon's surface during this phase the Moon can be seen in the western sky after the sun dips below the horizon at sunset. The moon is close to the sun in the sky and mostly dark except for the right edge of the moon which becomes brighter as the days get closer to the next phase

The rotation of the moon around the earth drives the Islamic or Hijri Calendar. The lunar month lasts 29.5 days. A new moon is born when it becomes perpendicular between the sun and the earth. At that point, called ‘conjunction’, A lunar conjunction is the event when the earth, moon and sun, in that order, are approximately in a straight line. It is sometimes referred to as the new moon, though in Judaism, the new moon refers to observance by earth bound individuals of the first visible crescent of the moon. The period of time between two lunar conjunctions is the synodic month, which is a basic unit in most lunar (such as the Islamic) and luni-solar (such as the Hebrew) calendars. The opposite event is called full moon or lunar opposition when sun, earth and moon, in that order, are approximately in a straight line.

The moon is completely invisible to us because all of the sun’s radiation is reflected back by the moon and none reaches the earth. 

The time passed after the moment of conjunction is called the age of the moon.

Once the moon is visible, the month of Ramadan is declared.

In order to declare the beginning of Ramadan, Saudi Arabia and other Muslim-majority countries depend on the testimonies of local moon sightseers. Despite the knowledge of astronomy, science and moon calculations, the scholar maintains that seeing the moon with the naked eye should be the criterion for declaring the start of a new month. Many religious authorities say this has been the tradition since the times of the Prophet Muhammad (s.a.a.w.)

The actual visibility of the crescent depends on factors like atmospheric conditions, cloudiness, and most critical of all, the distance between the sun and the moon on the horizon. Astronomically the birth of a new moon can be calculated

If the sun and the moon are too close to each other, there is a high chance that the moon will be invisible because of the glare caused by much brighter sunlight.

Saudi Arabia has called for moon sighting on Thursday evening. If no moon is spotted, fasting begins on Saturday.

As per astronomical calculations, Ramadan fasting from May 27 to June 24.

Lunar months last between 29 and 30 days, depending on sighting of the moon on the 29th night of each month. If the moon is not visible, the month will last 30 days.

By the Gregorian solar calendar, Ramadan comes 10 to 12 days earlier each year. Last year, the first day of Ramadan was on June 6, 2016.

In the United States, the Fiqh Council of North America (FCNA) announced that Ramadan would be observed from May 27, based on astronomical predictions.

Muslim communities in Europe will also observe Ramadan starting from May 27, as per the European Council of Fatwa and Research and the Islamic Relief UK charity.

Calculation indicates that the moon should be visible from most countries in the evening of May 26, either with the naked eye or a telescope.

Last year, fasting hours across the world ranged between 11 and 22 hours. This year, fasting hours will range between 10 hours in Chile and 21 hours in Greenland. 

Welcome the month of Ramadan with the heart filled with peace, harmony and joy
May the spirit of Ramadan stay in our heart and Illuminate our soul from within

Ramadan Kareem!!!
