"Let's begin today's lesson with a brief discussion about why we study astronomy. What makes humanity look up and want to study the heavens? Furthermore, why do you think it is a subject that young witches and wizards are required to take here at Hogwarts?"

At least for the first five years of their education at least. Although, if it was up to him, it would be for all seven. But the man was just a tad biased.

Torrance wasn't cold, but when he got the blanket out of the box, he wrapped himself up in it like a big in a blanket. He then proceeded to run his fingers around the nameplate which had magically infused itself into the desk he was sitting it. Tracing his fingers on it gave a nice feeling on the tip of his index an interesting tingle. He was so transfixed on this he completely missed whatever it was that Mister Professor Flamsteed was speaking about. Something about who he was, or whatever. This spurred Torrance to look up though and pay attention. The Professor was speaking of course so He'd have to return to the nameplate later. "We want to Study Astronomy because someday we all want to go fly up there as far as we can." Or at least that's what HE wanted to do. Astronomy was the class about Space right? So to get to space you have to fly, and that's what Torrance was all ABOUT! As for why it's required? "Is it because I should take the class my Head of House Teaches?" He didn't really know.
