I pointed my telescope at Beetle-gise an saw an orange star. Then I looked at O'Ryan neb-yulla. Then I went over to Plee-aid-eez. Afer that I looked around in Boot-eez before hunting through Erra-day-ness. I finished off with Oh-meega Cen-tor-ee and Al-da-bran.

Hey Eric, that's 'Hi-fer-nay-shun Da-zeez'

Got in big trouble one night when I pronounced Gamma Virginis as Gamma Vaginus.
