Kurumi began to wish she had not read so much about magical creatures and had also done some reading about astronomy. She felt utterly lost for the first time - and she was not happy about it...especially when the professor said "as you learned last year." She hadn't been here last year, and almost raised her hand to point that out. She sure got agitated when she didn't know what was going on.

Oh! Edwin Hubble! Kurumi knew a little about him. She raised her hand. "Kurumi Hollingberry, first year Gryffindor," she introduced herself before continuing with her answer. "Mr. Edwin Powell Hubble was an American astronomer completely changed our way of understanding the universe by proving that there is more to the universe and more galaxies than the Milky Way Galaxy in which Earth resides. He also helped establish that the universe itself is constantly expanding. He also created a system for classifying galaxies that is commonly used where galaxies are divided into 3 broad classes - ellipticals, lenticulars and spirals - based on their visual appearance. This is called the Hubble sequence, although some call it the Hubble tuning-fork diagram." Kurumi would have to write her brothers and thank one in particular for being an astronomy nerd.
