Let's get away and see the night we'll find a place that has no light. We shouldn't have to go too far where we can see a shooting star. Prairie, forest, mountains high; any place to see the sky. Bring a blanket to keep warm, but don’t go out if there’s a storm. Plan some time so it will last, you’ll see some things from distant past. At first the Milky Way you’ll see; the clustered edge of our galaxy, it has two hundred billion suns connect the dots with brighter ones. Some are planets, some are not, some are cool and others hot. But one thing I can surely say; they are all very far away! About a thousand years their light has traveled to become our night.
