Tessa couldn't possibly answer the first question in full because she knew a LOT about space, okay? And that wasn't supposed to sound boastful. Her knowledge wasn't complete buuuuut it was heavily informed by her boyfriend's, Alfie, who LOVED the stars and space and stuff. She would give one big, nice, interesting fact. Raising her hand, and sort of echoing/adding on from the answer the first year, Charlie, gave, she said, "Most of the stars that we can see at night, except, like, a few really faint ones, are actually BIGGER and BRIGHTER than Sun. The Sun only seems bigger and brighter because it's closer to us."

So they were going to be studying the sun?

Oooooh, cool, that meant her sun and stars fact had related quite nicely to the lesson's topic.

ANYWAY. Yeah, how was the Sun useful? Maybe it was one of the more obvious answers but Tessa was going to give it anyway. "The sun can be used to tell the time. I think Hogwarts actually has a sundial somewhere, right? They designed to cast shadows that will, uh, line up with a certain time."
