I finally got the opportunity to go to the Lowell Observatory after work up in Flagstaff, AZ. I was able to see incredibly close up on some of the craters of the moon and got a great view of the Orion Nebula. To think that the next closest star to our Sun is 4.3 light years away. So it would take a photon of light the same amount of time to reach Alpha Centauri as it would take you to complete your undergraduate degree. Whoa!!!
