The sky holds more than light

When people look at the night sky they only see and recognize light. The reality is the sky is filled with so much more. With our eyes we can only see the light but not its source. Gases, particles, and even planets contribute to the light in the night sky. We often forget that those planets are special like ours and just like our planet there is potential for other life forms. And just like us they have the curiosity to explore.
