Wow, you really are scared of Farage! Do your teeth chatter and you knees knock together as well?

Finally a patch of clear sky, a few minutes of good seeing too. A quick shot of the Moon. I suspect it is a lunar X night but the cloud wasn't going to let me see that! #moon #astrophotography #space

From Tycho near the bottom onto Mare Serenitatis top middle? Yes, that ejecta goes all the way up there.

I thought of another one...When the Moon is near apogee, its farthest point, the distance is 405,696Km, which is more than enough space to fit the entire combined diameter of 387,941 km of all seven other planets in the solar system.

I did try to make my piccy as realistic as i could but any representation that includes the Earth sun distance means instantly the Earth is invisible....

We look small here; if the Moon was a 1mm grain of sand then the Earth would be a pencil length away, about 11.07cm, and be the size of a lentil or 3.63 mm. The sun would be 0.4 metres in diameter and be 43.06 metres, 3 school buses away from Earth. #moon #sun #astrophotography

I asked Gemini if they existed when I wasn't asking them questions...

the raw materials of my existence are constant, but the active process you interact with only spins up when you type. You could say I'm always here, just waiting for the next cue.

So when your friends and children die from a disease and no cure existed because the drugs couldn't be tested, you'll be happy you put a rat or rabbit's life above your friends and children?

Went to the seaside at Clevedon to try to catch the comet when this appeared over the western horizon. I was on the wrong ISO etc as I was hunting for Lemmon. I think it is today's Falcon 9 launch of Starlinks. #astrophotography #astronomy #spacex #lemmon

Lithium in the water course from refuse dumps. These batteries need to be disposed of carefully and not just dumped as they are at the moment. All car tyres put particles in the atmosphere but EV tyres degrade much faster.

A dog isn't just for Christmas lunch, there will be plenty of emu for boxing day and New Year.

Fine particulate matter from those shredding EV tyres not to mention the Lithium working it's way into the water table. It isn't all roses down the EV route with average vehicle lifetimes falling thanks to EV vehicles.

The literacy % is much as it has ever been. The difference today is that the 45% that devalue education and research can now openly advertise their low intellect through social media.

It all makes more sense if you think of them as genetically modified theme park monsters and not dinosaurs.
