Celeste stayed out of the way as she watched the gathered students took various options in viewing the night sky above them. Mr. Atreyu-Rehman was gazing at things on his own while Ms. Archard moved to the telescope nearest her to check out the Badger star. The astronomy professor caught her question and was about to answer when a late arrival added a comment causing her to chuckle. “Alas tis rather boring an’ not honoring dear Hufflepuff.” It would have been something though, for a muggleborn or mixed blood witch or wizard slipping that into muggle science. “Tis mostly joos badger or th’ numerical record number which is 93368036.” Thankfully it had come up in her activity prep so she could rattle it off.
At least she thought she was right.
Sirius….yes that star would be visible. “Aye right there in the Canis Major constellation." As for Jupiter….Celeste had to turn around to check for herself before nodding and raising her hand to point it out. “Can ye spot Orion the hunter…the one most notable for having the cluster of three stars for his belt?” she directed to Ms Craft and anyone else who was paying attention. “If ye can spot his bow and arrow, the arrow nearly points right to Jupiter.” It was quite fascinating when things worked out that way.
Was the Honey Badger part of a constellation?
“Aye, guid catch, Ms Marchand,” she remarked in confirmation of the girl’s observation. “Tis indeed part of Aquila.” And Celeste may or may not have arranged the telescopes so that it wasn’t blatantly obvious of the connection between the two house references. . Just to have a little fun challenge so shoot her.
ooc: Sorry for the delay in posting. RL likes to happen and interfer. As such I'm leaving the activity open as long as people want to participate and I'll be around with Celeste
