But this is Antarctic summer -- or late spring, perhaps -- so the sky is still blue at night and it's light enough to easily see. OMG, you're right! I hadn't caught that, but you're absolutely right, it's really awesome.

I love reading your posts on Avatar. For me, it was the show my kid watched and that I would catch scattered episodes of. Given that he's ten (and was eight when it ran here) he used to switch channels abruptly whenever anything got remotely emotional or, even worse, hinted at romance. I kind of got that it was a well-made show, but it didn't register as something within fannish reach, so to speak, until now. Your take on it has really been an eye-opener.
