The Friday Five
1. How many stars can you see in the sky at night where you live? (Not looking for an exact number here, just a general description.)
Quite a few; I live in New Zealand and I can see the Milky Way fairly easily, for example.
2. What is your favorite constellation?
Orion. In autumn, I can look out of my bathroom window at night and see it in the west.
3. Are you able to see and identify any planets in the sky? Which ones?
I see Venus the most. Sometimes Mars; if it's close enough I can think, 'yes, it's definitely the Red Planet'.
4. Have you ever seen a satellite orbiting above the earth?
Once or twice but only by sheer luck.
5. Have you ever seen a rocket blasted off into space?
No.
