Mañana means tomorrow but also morning. Mañana por la mañana means tomorrow morning. The usage here is correct but I'd argue that madrugada is a more fitting word

What, you've never shown up at work in the future and wished your coworkers "Buenos mañana"? I never have either, but I will...

For 22 out of 24 hours every day, 2AM is always tomorrow.

It's weird that they knew enough to put the accent over the ñ, but not enough to actually know the word

Sometimes people forget the beauty of the night sky

Also light pollution has mostly ruined it for large portions of the world population. The night sky on a remote island is absolutely incredible. People don't even know what they're missing.

I recently learned there's actually a "darkness park" in the north of my country. Basically a place without light pollution. I kinda wanna visit it sometime during a new moon

Yeah you totally should. I have had some of the most peaceful moments in my life when stargazing. Sometimes I feel like it connects me spiritually with every human that ever lived across time and space. We are all equally insignificant in the context of the universe, and yet equally blessed to witness its grandeur.

I was so pleasantly surprised to find my phone has an astrophotography mode! I've been holding off on doing anything related to that because it's such an expensive hobby, but now with my phone and a cheapo tripod I can get some nice images. A little blurry but better than nothing! It's been great :D

Oh ye, I've got an app for that too! It's great!

Sleep deprivation is a proven (temporary) cure for depression. When I'm sleep deprived I also sometimes feel near euphoric

I've never thought to sit on the hood of my car.

Damn, I don't own a car + live in a city with light pollution. Maybe that's why I'm depressed, can't get enlightened
