Many years ago I owned a hobby shop and one of the lines I sold was astronomical telescopes. Along with them I carried books and magazines about astronomy. One day my son stopped in to visit and we were looking at one of the sky charts of the night sky. We were finding some of the stars and the planets that would be visible. Then he asked "where is the Earth on this chart?" I pointed to the skyline on the edge of the chart and said, "You would be standing on it."
