Some nights, even now, when I am feeling more than typically emo I wander over to stand by them and imagine what they're studying deep in the vast expanse of the Animal Crossing universe. | Image credit: Nintendo I spent an embarrassing amount of time out there at the VLA, suddenly able to tilt the camera up, to see the telescopes loom nobly overhead.
