This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. The observatory's dome creaked against the autumn wind as Dr. Luna Hartwell adjusted the massive telescope for the third time that evening. Through the eyepiece, the constellation Andromeda sparkled with an ethereal beauty that never failed to take her breath away, even after fifteen years of studying the cosmos. Tonight felt different somehow, charged with an energy she couldn't quite explain. "Still here, Luna?" Dr. Marcus Chen's voice echoed through the chamber as he climbed the spiral staircase, his footsteps creating a rhythmic percussion against the metal steps. Steam rose from the two coffee cups he carried, creating small clouds in the cool night air. Luna straightened, pushing a strand of dark hair behind her ear. "The meteor shower tonight is supposed to be spectacular. The Draconids are at their peak, and with the new moon, visibility should be perfect." She accepted the coffee gratefully, wrapping her fingers around the warm ceramic. "Besides, someone needs to document this for the university's research database." Marcus smiled, settling beside her at the observation deck's railing. As the head of the Astrophysics Department at Meridian University, he'd grown accustomed to Luna's dedication to her work. What he hadn't grown accustomed to was the way his heart seemed to skip whenever she looked at him with those deep amber eyes, filled with wonder at the universe's mysteries. "You know," he said, gazing up at the star-scattered sky, "sometimes I think you love those stars more than anything else in the world." Luna was quiet for a moment, considering his words. "The stars don't disappoint you. They're constant, predictable. You can calculate their movements, understand their life cycles, map their positions." She paused, taking a sip of coffee. "People are more complicated."
