Telescope Lyrics Starset Novels & Stories

Some stars shine with a strong, steady glow, while others flicker delicately, as if sending messages of light across the cosmos.”

Tiny lights. Hundreds of them. Far beyond the city's constellations. Far beyond anything visible to the naked eye. Moving. Traveling. Coming closer. I lowered the telescope immediately. "What?" Everyone stared. I handed it to Void. He looked. Froze. Looked again. Then handed it to Seraphine. Who gasped softly. One by one, everyone looked through the telescope.

“Is this okay?” “It’s perfect.” Her voice is soft, emotional. “How did you arrange this?” “I made some calls. Donated to their astronomy program. They were happy to let us have private access for a few hours.” She walks to the telescope, running her fingers along its edge. “I haven’t looked at stars through a telescope since I was little. I don’t even remember the last time.” “Then let’s change that.” I show her how to adjust the focus, and we spend the next hour looking at constellations. I point out Orion, the Big Dipper, Venus hanging low on the horizon. Maya is enchanted, asking questions, laughing when she can’t find what I’m describing.

A wide lens points to the ceiling, and I follow it upwards just as Isaac cranks a lever on the wall and the ceiling begins to part. The golden streaked sky opens up above my head, and the dusty smell of the room lifts, replaced by crisp spring air. “A telescope.” Isaac moves to my side, his face tilted toward the sky. “Obviously, this is better done at night, but I doubt we’ll have much time to do anything like this until my parents go back to Maatua.”

His singing was soft, almost like a lullaby, each word soaked in emotion: 🎶 Oh~ the brightest star in the night sky, Please guide me close to you. 🎶 🎶 Oh~ the brightest star in the night sky, do you know?
