Look to the stars

Cory Gross at Voyages Extraordinaires has an excellent post on the 400th anniversary of Galileo's demonstration of the telescope, just past. Check it out (it has several links to follow), along with this video 'Ginga' ('Galaxy') by Misia, the official theme song for the Japanese International Year of Astronomy committee, for the magic we have when looking at the stars. Thanks, Cory.
