hey, i was listening to some program about the stars last week & it was just after i’d finished the harry potter books:))
anyway, in hp, there’s this magic wizard dude who can morph into a big black dog, and his name is Sirius..
well, they tell me the closest (& therefore brightest/’biggest’) star in the sky is called ‘the dog star’, & other wise known as sirius.
haha, i just thought that was some sweet, abeit somewhat nerdy, trivia:) the end.

i know that..
the two stars that point to the southern cross are the alpha & beta centauri. beta centauri is actully not one star but two. really really close together.
i learnt this on a trip to south africa when i was 15. Which therefor proves i must be interested in this subject. Because why else would that be the biggest thing i remember about an entire country.
no, not really true. i remember lots about s.africa. it was fully awsome.
