MUAR: Villagers in several areas in Muar were pleasantly surprised to see a Smiley in the night sky comprising a crescent moon, which looked like a smile, and two stars, which looked like eyes.
Teacher Yaakob Jamain said he spotted the “smiling moon” when he was leaving his house to meet with some friends in town. The Star office in Petaling Jaya also received several calls from readers who saw the Smiley.
A check on the Internet revealed that the stellar phenomenon was caused by Venus, Jupiter and a three-day-old crescent moon aligning at the right spots to form the Smiley.
If you missed it last night, you will have to wait another five years before Smiley appears in the night sky again.
