[justify]Professor Harrington was waiting in the Astronomy tower for the seventh years to show up. Once they were seated she started the lesson. “Tonight we are going looking into the lives of famous wizarding astronomers. First we will discuss Harmony Salvatore,” Sarah paused letting the students prepare to take notes. She felt bad they were having to take so many notes this year, but it was all important.

“Salvatore was born in 1743 and she attended Hogwarts Scotland. Thanks to her father’s large income, Salvatore bought her way into getting good grades, except for astronomy. Salvatore discovered that the ‘solar flares’ coming from the sun are in fact magic that we use,” Professor Sarah continued, “Her brother Francis tried to cover up these facts because he envied her, as he was a squib.”

“Moving on, Romedius Gilmour led the first society of Cosmolida – which is an organization that investigates extra-terrestrial being in the magical world. Now we learned earlier in the semester that extra-terrestrials do exist. Now this group is still around today and they work with the British M15,” Sarah said looking over the students faces as she lectured on. “The last is Annabelle Beavis, who was the founder of the Mortmyron Observatory.”

Now Sarah had a surprise for her bored students. “Now everyone gather around and take a hold of this tele remote,” Sarah said and then they were off. “Welcome everyone to Bishop’s Rock. Over there is the Mortmyron Observatory. It’s completely abandoned now, but we shall go and take a look inside.” Sarah said leading the students over towards the building. With magic it was easy access places that had locks on them to keep muggles out. “Lumos Maxima,” she said sending up a light to illuminate the whole area. There were magical telescopes and a very large glass dome above them. “Enjoy looking around for the next twenty minutes or so. I lined the telescopes up with some interesting happenings in the sky so feel free to look through them to see what’s up there,” Sarah said waving the students off. Once the time was up she gathered them all back and they arrived back at the classroom.
