Look first
That little point is not little.
It is far away. Its light has been traveling.
Some of it you can see tonight, with nothing but your eyes. Some of it needs a darker sky, or a telescope. Some of it is not a light you can point to from the yard.
All of it is real.
Come outsideWhere shall we look?
