I had a thought a couple of nights ago: the constellations, like Aries (above) are made up of stars that are actually billions of miles away from each other, and those stars are not on the same plane, i.e.some stars are deeper into space than others. The longer I think about that, the more my head hurts.

The universe is fascinating and I find it hard to understand light years and all that stuff. I love it learning more about it.

Space measurements throw everybody off. It’s fascinating stuff, mostly because once you get out of the solar system it’s chaos…

I loved teaching my students about the universe. Even with tons of hands on labs, the concept of how far away the stars actually were was truly beyond their comprehension. We had lots of fun though.

I know… they look so close and they’re like a drawing, so you really have no idea that they’re so distant from each other. That’s the beauty of it.

It’s not where the stars are located, it’s the images we see from Earth that fascinate us, isn’t it? Unless you’re into science fiction/space travel, that is.

That they form those images despite where they actually are is the part that blows my mind…
