Lewis (Scottish Gaelic: Leòdhas, pronounced [ʎɔː.əs̪], also Isle of Lewis) is the northern part of Lewis and Harris, the largest island of the Western Isles or Outer Hebrides (an archipelago) of Scotland. The total area of Lewis is 683 square miles (1,770 km2).
Lewis is, in general, the lower lying part of the island, with the other part, Harris, being more mountainous. The flatter, more fertile land means Lewis contains the largest settlement, Stornoway, and three-quarters of the population of the Western Isles. Beyond human habitation, the island's diverse habitats are home to an assortment of flora and fauna, such as the golden eagle, red deer and seals and are recognised in a number of conservation areas.
Lewis is of Presbyterian tradition with a rich history, having once been part of the Norse Kingdom of Mann and the Isles. Today, life is very different from elsewhere in Scotland with Sabbath observance, the Gaelic language and peat cutting retaining more importance than elsewhere. Lewis has a rich cultural heritage as can be seen from its myths and legends as well as the local literary and musical traditions.
Lewis (satellite)
Lewis was an American satellite which was to have been operated by NASA as part of the Small Satellite Technology Initiative. It carried two experimental Earth imaging instruments, and an ultraviolet astronomy payload. Due to a design flaw it failed within three days of reaching orbit, before it became operational.
Lewis was a 288 kilograms (635 lb) spacecraft, which was designed to operate for between one and three years. It was built by TRW under a contract which was signed on 11 July 1994. Its primary instruments were the Hyperspectral Imager, the Linear Etalon Imaging Spectral Array and the Ultraviolet Cosmic Background experiment. A number of technology demonstration payloads were also flown.
Launch
Lewis was launched by a LMLV-1 (Athena I) rocket flying from Space Launch Complex 6 at the Vandenberg Air Force Base. The launch was originally scheduled to take place in September 1996, but it was delayed due to technical problems affecting the rocket. Launch finally occurred at 06:51:01 GMT on 23 August 1997, and Lewis was successfully placed into a parking orbit with an apogee of 134 kilometres (83 mi), a perigee of 124 kilometres (77 mi), and 97.5 degrees of inclination. Lewis was to have raised itself into a higher orbit, at an altitude of 523 kilometres (325 mi).
M. Lewis (Surrey cricketer)

Tears
by: AsiaTears in my eyes
Tears in my eyes
Feeling like there's nothing left to say
Maybe I should wait for another day, one more day
Tried to find myself, but now you're gone
I had to find the strength to carry on, carry on
Ghosts of love will come, now the light is gone
Haunting my soul, never letting go
Losing you would always be my fear
Never knowing if you'd still be here, still be here
Remembering the words you said to me
Saying that you had to set me free, set me free
Run through the fields like a child who's closing the door
(Lonely like the wind)
You're feeling the wind, now the sun don't shine
(Echoes back again)
Tears in my eyes, how they fall like rain to the floor
(Ghosts of love will come)
Where do you go when the summer's gone?
(Now the light is gone)
Walking away is the same as closing the door
(Haunting my soul)
Can you look at the sky when the sun don't shine?
(Never letting go)
Look in my eyes, you can see my dreams on the floor
(Through my broken dreams)
Where do I go now the summer is gone?
(Hear you calling me)
Tears in my eyes, how they fall like rain to the floor
(Ghosts of love will come)
Where do you go when the summer's gone?
(Now the light is gone)
Walking away is the same as closing the door
(Haunting my soul)
Can you look at the sky when the sun don't shine?
(Never letting go)
Look in my eyes, you can see my dreams on the floor
(Through my broken dreams)
Where do I go now the summer is gone?
(Hear you calling me)
Run through the fields like a child who's closing the door
(Lonely like the wind)
You're feeling the wind, now the sun don't shine
(Echoes back again)
Tears in my eyes, how they fall like rain to the floor
(Ghosts of love will come)
Where do you go when the summer's gone?
(Now the light is gone)
Walking away is the same as closing the door
(Haunting my soul)
Can you look at the sky when the sun don't shine?
(Never letting go)
Look in my eyes, you can see my dreams on the floor
(Through my broken dreams)
Where do I go now the summer is gone?
