“Daddy, what are stars?”
“Well kiddo, stars are big balls of fire. Much much bigger than the earth. The Sun is a star. Kind of a small one too.”
“Stars? Like the Sun? There’s so many. How many are there?”
“Heh heh! That is one of the oldest questions. There are some guesses but they don’t agree much. 1000 stars for every grain of sand on Earth is one guess. I wonder if there is no number. You know, like infinity.”
“Counting stars makes my neck hurt.”
“Counting stars makes my brain hurt.”
“Daddy, how come that one moved?”
“Huh?”
