Explanation:

1. Astronomers typically analyze stars using mathematical and scientific methods. So, they view stars as objects broken - down into math and science.
2. The narrator likely leaves because they don't like the scientific way the astronomer views the stars. The scientific approach seems to take away the natural beauty and mystery for the narrator.
3. The term "mystical" implies that the speaker views nature as somewhat magical and is in awe of it. It doesn't necessarily mean they reject science but rather see a magical aspect in nature.

Answer:

1. as objects broken down into math and science
2. because he does not like how scientifically the astronomer views the stars
3. The word suggests that the speaker views nature as somewhat magical and is in awe of it.
