@Aisling "I'll show you how everything works," Ioan promised as he unlocked the door with his card. The first room they went to was rather unspectatular: It had nothing but a messy desk with a computer in it. "This is my office," Ioan explained.
@Aisling "Five," Ioan answered. "Only Dmitri will be here tonight... the others are on travel. But we often are visited by astronomers from other institutes who use our telescopes for research."
@Aisling Ioan smiled as he parked his car in front of the building. "That's my observatory. I am the leader of it."

Ioan got out. It was a cold night. Ioan looked up and saw that the stars were not sparkling a lot. "Seems to be relatively windless up there. Perfect observation conditions!"
@Aisling "Yes," Ioan answered, and they went to his car.

45 minutes later, they saw something above the forest...

@Aisling Toma smiled. "Yes, I love the observatory!" "If we want to be there on time, we'll have to go now," Ioan said. "I'm too unconcentrated to teleport... but you can rest in the car."
@Aisling "I guess Pluto wouldn't have been in it. Its orbit is so much of an ellipse that in this scale, it would go from here out to the pond in the garden on one side and to the court on the other. And the whole universe... that'd be a bit too much to build, but..." Ioan explained. "How about I take you two to my observatory tonight? I can show you a computer simulation of the whole universe there."
@Aisling Toma looked at it. "It's beautiful! It's the eight planets. Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. In reality, there's the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, and behind Neptune, there is Pluto and with it the Kuiper belt - the region where the comets come from - and probably the Oort cloud. And the solar system has got a second star in it that Ioan discovered."
@Aisling Me too. I will have a second opinion as well... and it's okay.
@Aisling Ah, it read like you were
@Aisling "Tonight!" Toma answered instantly. So Ioan plugged both orrerys in, and the planets began to shine and to move.
