Now he was wishing that he had that particular book with him...not that it had any relation to the research he had initially come here to do. "It is. By the National Geographic Society. They are a muggle non-profit scientific and educational institution over in the United States. Have a fascinating magazine as well, but I had to cancel my subscription a few years ago." Did it matter that it was muggle? The astronomer was slightly curious as to why the Ravenclaw had asked about the distinction.
He nodded as the boy read. "Yep, that's the one. Quite difficult to view from Hogwarts naturally, but given that the planetarium provides an uninterrupted view of the night sky, you are able to see it now." Otherwise, well, trees and mountains and Merlin knew whatever would most likely be hiding it from view
Seeing that the boy had gone back to work, Airey pulled out his own parchments again - star charts dotted with a few red X's here and there followed by dotted green and orange lines to signify predicted cosmic movements. If calculations were correct...he may be able to execute some transit photometric methodology....hmmmm...
