I was unable to find it, but a few years ago there was a tv ad to promote RVing that had a little girl on her father’s shoulders, looking up at the night sky in a remote area, and asking him who turns off the stars at night. :slight_smile:

I call dibs on discovering the universe. From here on out, it’s known as “mutepointe.”

Then I call dibs on pointing out the mutes. :wink:

Who’s astronomy? Frankly, I’m concerned about featureless, pointy-limbed, blob-headed aliens gazing out at us with a directive that we’re theirs to discover. This is obviously a PR campaign by advance agents of our future overlords.

I don’t really believe in astrology. I am disturbed that NASA would perpetuate such beliefs.

Astrology has been around a lot longer than NASA. What would they know about it? (that is, if you believe in NASA at all).
