In the meantime

You’re looking at this book right now, and in the meantime…. What is happening at this moment in different parts of our vast planet? What are its inhabitants doing? Somewhere it’s day and somewhere it’s night, somewhere it’s summer and somewhere it’s winter. Norwegian fishermen are heading out to the sea, in bustling New York people are rushing about their business, in Indonesia a volcano is erupting, and crowds of tourists are watching The Great Sphinx. Let’s go on a trip around the world, where in a few minutes we will visit not only different continents, but also the outer space.
