Chapter 54： Astronomy class

Astronomy Tower is the tallest tower in Hogwarts, and astronomy classes are taught on top of this tower.

By the way, astronomy class is a rather weird type. There is no uniform book for this class. Students only need to bring binoculars, feather pen and parchment to class.

This astronomical tower is really high, and the group of people who went to the top of the astronomical tower to have a class had a deep experience.

Everyone is climbing up the spiraling stairs. They don't know how many floors they reach. Everyone feels an inexplicable dizziness, and their breathing becomes a little fast due to exercise.

"What floor is it?" Alia asked, panting.

"The eighth floor." George raised his finger to a portrait of a drunk knight beside him, smiled and introduced to everyone, "Last time, when Fred and I came, I saw this guy drunk. I fell into the river and almost drowned."

"How could the characters in the portrait be drowned." Angelina couldn't help but vomit.

"Who said no. Look carefully!" Fred winked at everyone mischievously, combined his hands into a horn suit, and shouted at the portrait of the drunk knight: "Ah!"

Then, a stunned look happened in front of them. The drunk knight in the portrait seemed to be taken aback by the shout, suddenly became panicked, started running wildly, and finally fell into the river next to the portrait. in.

The drunk rider swooped twice in the water and sank into the river. The woman in the portrait next door hurriedly called for help and tried to get him out of the river.

Everyone looked at this scene dumbfounded, their mouths widened in surprise.

Soon, everyone had to speed up their pace and climb up, because Fred's weird scream annoyed several paintings next to them, and they stared at Albert and his party dissatisfiedly.

"It's almost here." George gasped. I don’t know how long they’ve been walking, they finally reached the top of the tower,

"It's really a long journey. Fortunately, we have enough time." Albert glanced at his pocket watch, and class was almost up.

"By the way, if it rains at night, this astronomy class will not be available." George suddenly heard something, and it rained and the sky would not be visible.

"Who knows? I guess I will leave you a bunch of homework!" Angelina reached out and pushed open the wooden door of the Astronomy Tower.

Professor Sinnista is already waiting for everyone at the top of the tower. She has just finished a class.

After nightfall, the wind on the top of the Astronomical Tower was very strong, and everyone huddled in the corner to chat. Hufflepuff’s students have not arrived yet, they are almost late.

"It's probably lost." George was a little gloating, hoping that Professor Sinista would deduct points from Hufflepuff's students.

However, George was destined to be disappointed. Cedric and the other Hufflepuff students came to the top of the Astronomy Tower before class.

"It's really hard to find here, I was almost late." Cedric Diggory was short of breath, smiled and greeted a few people here.

"Okay, come here, class is about to begin." Professor Sinista attracted the new students, and there was an object covered by canvas on her side.

"I know you are very unfamiliar with astronomy knowledge, and astronomy teaches you this knowledge." As she said, she opened the canvas beside her, revealing what was hidden underneath.

"This..." Albert saw what was under the canvas. It was a small model of the solar system in a round glass cover.

This model of the solar system is very beautiful. In the middle is the burning sun, surrounded by nine planets and their satellites, all suspended in circular glass balls, shining in their respective positions.

"This is the solar system. We live here." Professor Sinista pointed to the earth and continued, "Your course this semester is to learn how to use telescopes to observe the starry sky and find nine planets in the starry sky above us. Specific location."

The students from the wizard's family are obviously new to celestial bodies, and Albert is a little doubtful whether they know the planet they live on is called the earth.

Professor Sinista took the magic wand and pointed to the moving celestial bodies. Like everyone, he briefly introduced the movement of celestial bodies, the solar system they are in and other simple astronomical knowledge, and let everyone teach you how to draw astrological diagrams and place them in the astrological diagrams. Mark the names and positions of the nine planets.

To Albert, it's actually nothing.

However, it is difficult for others to remember for a while.

"Wrong, this position is Mars, not Jupiter." Albert reluctantly corrected Fred's mistake, and George next to him was not much better.

After everyone finished drawing the star map of the solar system, Professor Sinista began to teach everyone how to find the position of the planet they needed in the galaxy above.

The wizard’s telescope is actually very effective. It may have something to do with magic. What you can see is clearer than the ordinary Muggle telescope.

"Have you found the location of Mars?" Shanna narrowed one eye and looked into Albert's lens barrel.

They don't even know which one is Mars, and it takes a lot of time to adjust the focal length for a new born who has never used a telescope.

"I didn't find Albert was also quite helpless. In fact, he had already looked towards Professor Sinista's finger, but it would not be easy to find the most sparks in the sea full of stars.

Professor Sinistera walking around would occasionally look at the students’ telescopes and correct some of their mistakes.

"If you only rely on magic, would you really be able to travel to the universe?" This weird idea suddenly grew in Albert's mind.

There should be no way!

After all, the number of wizards in the Harry Potter world is very small, and a small number means that there are also fewer geniuses...

Perhaps, the Department of Mystery Affairs of the Ministry of Magic has conducted research on this aspect, but it is only research after all...

After shaking off the thoughts in his head, Albert refocused his attention on the telescope and began to use the telescope to admire the stars in the sky.

Before, had he almost never seen the sky full of stars?

Until the end of the get out of class, Albert did not find the nine planets in the solar system, and he did not care. The more important thing in this class is to let everyone understand some astronomical knowledge and how to use the telescope. The family of Professor Sinista The homework is also very simple, just remember the approximate locations of the nine planets and their names.

"It's almost a curfew, go back soon." Li Qiaodan reminded.

"I'm a little hungry, I am going to the kitchen to get something to eat." Albert took out his pocket watch and looked at the time and said, there are still twenty minutes, enough time.

"Wait, let's go with you." The twins quickly handed their backpacks to Li Qiaodan, "Don't worry, we will remember to bring back food for you."

"You guys..." Li Qiaodan looked at the back of the three of them, shaking with anger, "You three... assholes, wait for me, don't leave me alone!"
