Astronomy


a scientific study for those who seek to understand the intricate ways of other worlds and galaxies because they’ve given up trying to fathom the ways of this one.
“i didn’t see this coming when i left kansas for the windy city. at the time i was in college, loyola university, majoring in astronomy. why astronomy? simple, there wasn’t anything on earth that could motivate me enough to go to an 8 am cl-ss on a half-way regular basis.”
