"I think I see the arm of our galaxy," she said, panning over as the bands thickened, she was soon able to see the rest of the galaxy. "This is simply gorgeous," she breathed, watching as it swirled around in the sky.
She looked up as Lux called out. Leaving her telescope, she walked over to Lux. "May I see?" she asked, taking a peek as she wandered away to another telescope. "I don't think we have to write them down," she replied, straightening.
Tessa wandered over to look out of Sander's telescope. "You're quite good at this," she told him with a warm smile. Soon, he was finding Jupiter, and she took a look at that also. "Amazing how much is still out there," she said, as she stepped away from his telescope. "How much we don't know about the universe is simply fascinating."
She returned to her telescope with a smile. "Probably not, but I'll see what I can do," she told him with a grin, as she returned her telescope's view to Saturn. She began to count, but once she passed 100, she decided to stop. "I could be here forever counting those rings," she said with a laugh. "I think I would be better spending my time looking at other things!"
She continued to search the night sky... when suddenly, a strange object appeared in her view. It was strangely shaped, and strangely colored... "Guys," she said with a frown. "Any idea what this could be?" Had she just found an alien? She took a peek at the other end of her telescope and laughed. It was only an insect that had perched on the lens. However, she wanted to see what the others would guess it was before she made the reveal.
Sander immediately looked up when he heard Tessa had seen something through her telescope. "
You saw something unusual? Was it a shooting star?...hey maybe you saw a UFO. Let me take a look," Sander immediately looked through her viewfinder.
There was something strange. Sander had never seen something like this before. "
You're right. It is weird. It seems to have blocked out some of the stars. I wonder if it's some massive asteroid, that we don't know about. We should tell Professor Airey about it," Sander looked up at Tessa beginning to get excited.
"
Your name could end up in the history books for finding it, Tessa," Sander told her before quickly back through the telescope.
Then something happened which actually made him jump back in surprise. "
The thing just moved.....wait a minute!!." Sander looked up from the viewfinder and leaned over to look at the lens. He looked up at Tessa and bumped his shoulder against hers.
"
Good one you had me fooled for awhile," he grinned shaking his head at her. "
Hey I'm going to take a break and go up to the Tower Patch, do you want to join me?" he smiled at Tessa.
