I used to get high and go to astronomy class at the girls school next door. Not what you think. I really did have class there. We even one day went to the Science Center for a field trip. Now that I think about it, what a very strange class to have. I actually liked it, and learned lots that I still remember. The Hertzsprung-Russell diagram of a star's life cycle was an early inspiration to what would've been browser metrics.

So, I've maintained a faint interest in astronomy. I have my brother's cheap telescope in the house. I still look up at the night sky for all the cool constellations. I still want to see a deep sky object through a telescope. The moon is one of the greatest things to look at at night. It's the romance of it all.

Anyway, I came across a neat site that plots out satellites in our heavens above. Check it out and keep looking at the stars.
