The sun appears in many positions in the sky... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_path

a snapshot of them over a year, at the same time of day, reveals the analemma http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analemma


but what if you snapshotted different points in the sunpath over the year? You could write a word. (and it should only take six months maximum! ;) The effect would be that of a dot-matrix font.

So, what should such a celestial dotmatrix "printer" write as it's first message?

"hello, world", of course! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hello_world_program
