Default Astronomy homework #1 - Post 5

Pleased with the success that she was having with her homework so far, Paulina felt that she would be done the assignment quicker than she had originally anticipated. Maybe she could even have her paragraph written up before bedtime. She was already thinking that she would probably write about Tycho because it was a relatively young crater and she found that just as interesting as the really old ones.

Heading back to her telescope, she began moving it around once more. She was going to stick with the highlands because it was more heavily cratered than the lowlands. She had been reading up a lot on the moon so now she felt that she had a pretty good grasp on the geography. Actually Astronomy was very fascinating in her eyes. Even Professor Flamsteed's oddness was rather endearing now that she had gotten quite used to it.

Adjusting the focus on the telescope a little, she moved her gaze upwards a little. Paulina wanted to see if there were any interesting features that she had missed earlier. Maybe she would be able to identify a crater that didn't stick out as plainly as Tycho had. As she searched her eyes landed on a crater that appeared to be really ancient. The shape was a little like a hexagon, and consulting the book she learned that it was Albategnius.

Awesome, she was done. Not really wanting to stop looking at space, Paulina set about putting the telescope away and packing up. It was almost time for bed but she could always come back later and try to find some constellations and planets. Smiling at the thought, she waved goodbye to Cinna and headed back down to her common room.
