Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

Out of the blue, The Girlfriend asked me, "do you know what's the difference between a star and a satellite?"

I racked my brains for an answer before she hinted at a song. I looked at her suspiciously, "a star twinkles and a satellite doesn't?"

The next night, I was on my way home when I looked up to the skies and found a large white entity in the night sky. Just next to entity was a star, glimmering and glowing faintly. All of a sudden I realise The Girlfriend was right; a satellite when seen from earth hangs in the night sky glowing brightly while a star is smaller than the satellite and it "twinkles" and glows very softly.

My my, such a bright girl.
