Dec. 25th, 2018 06:24 amI wrote an ode to the Christmas Tree Cluster, and all the other awesome astronomical objects in it’s region. For now, you can find the recording here on my tumblr, because I didn't really feel like figuring out music hosting today, but I'll update this post with embedded music once I've wrangled that.
I hope everyone is having a great holiday, whichever that one may be! Enjoy the filk!
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
How brightly shines your majesty!
Called NGC two-two-six-four,
But you are also so much more.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
How brightly shines your majesty!
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
So many stars adorn thee!
Your stellar furnace casts it’s glow,
And bathes us in it’s light below.
O Christmas tree, o Christmas tree,
So many stars adorn thee!
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
Twinkling for our jubilee!
So far to fly for Santa’s sleigh:
Twenty-six-thousand light years ‘way.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
Twinkling for our jubilee!
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
We greet you at our apogee!
We lift our eyes up to the sky;
Your light inspires man to fly.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
We greet you at our apogee!
