Astronomers discovered a mysterious spinning mass at the edge of our galaxy. It releases massive bursts of energy up to three times an hour. It's only 4,000 light years away. That's in our backyard. I majored in Astronomy 4,000 light years ago*. my only discovery was, I was no scientist, just a guy who stares at the stars, and dreams ... ------- * A light year is a measure of distance, not time, but for creative purposes, it worked here. And I really did major in Astronomy.
