He, unlike so many others, was quite comfortable in this unusual environment and the uncanny but subtle smirk he word as he continued to address the class was an indication of his amusement to those observant enough to take notice. As always, there was a methodology to his madness. Well...usually there was. 85%? "For those of you who do not know me, I am Professor Flamsteed - although you may also call me Professor Airey if you so please." The Admiral, well, that was a little selfish bonus to those who wished to call him that. He wouldn't deny anyone the opportunity to do so. "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.

Kay was liking Professor Flamsteed more and more every second.The curly haired girl straightened up when he start class, while wrapping her blanked more snugly around here ' It was quite cold.'

She raised her hand when he started to ask some questions, she quickly lower her hand back under the space blanket before answering.

"We like to study astronomy because we are naturally curious about the unknown. Us, humans have been studying space for centuries, yet there is so much we don't know yet, like exactly how expansive the universe is or if there is other planets with, or the capability of supporting, life on them. It truly is the final frontier. " The young girl finished up, with a grinned.
