The night sky has always seemed mystical to man - over the ages he has imbued it with almost magical powers. Now, with the advent of bigger, better computerised telescopes, colour enhanced pictures, and radio telescopes than can completely encircle our planet, we are learning more about the night sky and so, ultimately, learning more about ourselves.
