Camping Under The Stars With Sherlock Holmes And Dr. Watson

 

MessageToEagle.com - Who said that astronomy is such a serious subject that it cannot be funny?

Sometimes astronomy can even turn into a good detective story as it did when Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson went camping under the stars... We came across the story today and since it's Friday we decided to share it with our MessageToEagle readers so we can all start the weekend with a good laugh!

Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson were going camping. They pitched their tent under the stars and went to sleep. Sometime in the middle of the night Holmes woke Watson up and said: Watson, look up at the stars, and tell me what you see?Watson replied: I see millions and millions of stars.Holmes said: and what do you deduce from that?Watson replied: Well, if there are millions of stars, and if even a few of those have planets, quite likely there are some planets like earth out there. And if there are a few planets like earth out there, there might also be life.And Holmes said: Watson, you idiot, it means that somebody stole our tent!!
