Contents Stargazer's alphabet: A is for Andromeda, our neighbor galaxy -- B is the Big Dipper, that's an easy one to see -- C is for Cygnus, flying through the Milky Way -- D is for Draco, a dragon on display -- E is for Earth, our mother ship in flight -- F is for the first star that you wish upon at night -- G is for our galaxy, a pinwheel made of stars -- H is for Halley's Comet, which visits from afar -- I is for Io, an astronomer's delight -- J is for mighty Jupiter, the ruler of the night -- K is for the Kite-bootes is its name -- L is for the Lion, who has a starry mane -- M is for the Earth's Moon, which causes tides to ebb and flow -- N is for the North Star, which guides travelers as they go -- O is for Orion, whose belt is straight and bright -- P is for Perseids, August's awesome sight -- Q is for Queen Cassiopeia, upon her throne of stars -- R is for the red planet, the one that we call Mars -- S, the Summer Triangle, tells us when summer's here -- T is for Taurus, which shines when winter nights are clear -- U is for the universe, that's everything there is -- V is for Venus, a lovely dazzling disk -- W is for the wonders that await us in the night -- X is for exquisite and extraordinary sights -- Y is for the yellow stars, like our own great Sun -- Z is for the Zodiac-now our alphabet is done.
