Looking out now, the comet was framed by the window enough that they really didn't need to use the telescopes, although it certainly appeared much smaller now. She checked on the picture she had just taken. Oh, that had worked much better than she expected it to. She should probably invest in something that had a better zoom though. Using a telescope was a little impractical. After attaching it to the parchment, Kurumi looked over at August and tried not to laugh too much.

"That seems like such a long name for a comet," she laughed. It did make her wonder if they had actually discovered a new one, or if this was one that was making its appearance in their solar system again after having been gone for so many years. "We could always combine our last names... the Goldberry Comet," she suggested.

After adding a title and their names to the parchment, Kurumi held it out for August to look at.

"You think we should go and get Professor Roslund? You know, to ask about the comment." He would probably know if it was a new discovery or not, right? Kurumi was no expert on charting stars, so the fact that she hadn't found it on her map didn't mean that it hadn't be scheduled to be in the night sky.

A new discovery perhaps to boast about during the "Founder's Fandango" event in a few days?

August looked up and saw that Kurumi was furiously scibbling notes onto her parchment about their discovery and he watched the comet move through the night sky. It wouldn't be right for it to be moving without at least one of them watching it the entire time.

As soon as she was finished the boy turned and began to check the info she had written, 'Pluto....near Uranus...through the eagle constellation.' Looked good. His attention was then brought back to the naming of the comet and the realization that the name he had suggested was a tad too long. "Yeah, I guess it the Goldstein-Hollingberry comet is a long name." He then listened to her suggestion and grinned. "I like it!"

He was about to agree to go and fetch Professor Roslund from his office that wasn't too far, when the man showed up. Perhaps he had some listening devices up here in order to spy on the students or he may not sleep at all, being specilized in the feild of Astronomy. "Oh good evening Professor Roslund, we, Kurumi and I, we think we discovered a comet, right there!" he said excitedly, pointing at the sky.
