Our Trip to the Observatory

by Cass Lin · Apr 2026

Our science class took a night bus to the mountain . The cold air smelled like pine and stars.

Through the giant telescope, I saw the rings of Saturn for the first time. They were so tiny and so real at the same time.

Our guide explained that the we were seeing left Saturn nearly eighty minutes ago. Space, she said, is basically a time machine.
