Night At the Lab

Wait.

It’s real.

I always knew it was,

I’d read about it,

Seen photos of it,

Even seen video footage of it.

But until I looked through the telescope myself,

And saw it up there in the blackness,

Suspended in face with its four Gallilean moons,

Two red equatorial bands and all:

Jupiter.
