Celestial Waltz

Reading Time: 2 minutes All of history’s philosophers looked to the heavens for inspiration and most found it in the magnificent choreography of the cosmos. Something we can all summon tonight on a sky gazer cell phone app. If we point our phones towards the lower southwestern sky (from NYC anyway) shortly after sunset, we will identify a celestial dance coming around for the first time in about 800 years.
