[Music]
ooh where am I you're standing next to
me that's
where wow you're here to see the rings
of Saturn aren't you well of course you
are who's Saturn and why would she want
to show me her rings H I guess she must
like jewelry a lot oh that is a good one
no Saturn is a planet that's surrounded
by Rings oh but I forget my manners my
name is Galileo like the famous
astronomer that's someone who studies
space but everyone calls him Leo hello
hello my name is Jilly I'm Franny
pleased to meet you both where are we
and what is this place where are we
we're on a mountain on the big island of
Hawaii in the observatory it's a place
where astronomers come to study space
through that telescope it's one of the
most most powerful telescopes in the
world you can see really really far and
since we're on a mountain over 4,000 M
up it's hardly ever cloudy here that
makes it one of the best places in the
world to see the night sky and Leo and I
love nothing nothing more than looking
at the night
sky how do you see the sky there aren't
any
Windows how do we see the
sky oh no windows you're a real hit her
Franny Franny over
here sparkling Starlight look there's
the Big Dipper really where up there
it's a constellation a constellation is
a group of stars that happen to make a
shape those stars make the shape of a
Dipper it looks like a giant soup ladle
exactly
there's another constellation the stars
make the shape of a
lion I see it it's called Leo good
name is there a constellation in the
shape of a shoe a shoe I've never heard
of one but there's so many billions of
stars out there you can probably make
out just about any
shape twinkling tootsies that looks like
like a
shoe stargazing is fun but why do we
need this great big telescope we can see
the stars without it true but there are
lots of things we can only see with a
telescope like the mountains on the moon
or the rings of Saturn I almost forgot
the Rings will be visible tonight
through the
telescope they're so
beautiful would you like to take a look
would I
[Music]
can't
reach there's a foot stool in that
Supply
Closet okie
dokie there it
is you found
[Music]
it I can just reach
ooh ravishing Rings they wrap around the
planet and they're all all different
colors come on Leo aren't you going to
have a turn hm oh um oh well you uh see
um I uh can't can't why not it's not
because I don't want to because I do I
really do but I can't reach never could
never will tried everything
everything that's terrible oh it's not
so bad really I might not be able to see
through the telescope but I can see the
Rings in a way you can can climb down
and I'll show
you that's how Galloping galaxies you wo
a picture of Saturn and its rings now
Leo can see what it looks
like but you know I still well I would
rather of course see it through the
telescope but I
can't wait a minute you can look through
the lens if you want
[Music]
all I have to do is hold you
up like this I can't believe it I
Galileo Mouse am actually going to look
through the telescope here

ladder out of this that twine is much
too big for me to
weave but you can do it me yes yes Jill

it's 293 steps to the top it sure is
high
I
know very high I have a question go
ahead tour Gods love answering questions
why does the Tower lean that's easy it
was built on ground that was too soft to
hold the tower up straight you sure know
a lot about the tower Antonio you could
be a real tour guide thanks that's my
dream to be a tour guide just like my
father but it will never happen sure it
will you're good at it what's at the top
of the Tower Bells seven and all my
father Rings them every day let's go
where to the top wa aren't you coming no

scarf
okay can you see anything nothing good
you won't know you're going up high and

stairs with a blindfold Franny I may not
be able to see how high up I am but I
can't see my own feet either piffle
you're right we need another idea
H how about walking up the stairs
backwards that way you won't see how
high it is like
this it might
[Music]

guess walking backwards is a pretty
silly idea thanks for trying to help
Franny I just have to accept that I'll
never be able to go to the top I just
can't walk up all
293 steps 293 is a lot of steps trippity
flippity that's it come with

steps at once like my grandpa says you
just have to walk up one at a time can
you climb just one step one step I can
do just
one fantastic now go up just another
step and one more and then one more just
one at a
time just another
step we're at the top now you can ring
the bells for your
father
Antonio where did he
go
Antonio wait where are you
going I'm too scared to go into the
tower room at the top but you've come
all the way up here if I went in there I
would see out the windows and know how
high up we were oh it's true there
aren't any windows in the stairwell
H are you thinking what I'm thinking you
won't have to see out the windows wait
here all done you can come in

won't be able to see how high up we are
thanks now I can ring the bells
fantastic let's do it together can I

W you did it you rang the bells now you
can be a real tour guide

thought it would be no wonder everyone
loves coming up here you can see forever

to the top of the tower without your
help you're welcome but I've got to go
