I mean, okay, so the sky is going to be pretty... :rofl:

(yes I read it and it sounds lovely)

but who gets paid to write this stuff? :shrug:

and is it really an "alert"?

do we need to take cover immediately?

Is there going to be so much pretty sky that we will be overcome and swept away with giddiness? :P


:rofl: :rofl:

1. It represents boobies in the sky to mark the special occasion.

"the 10% crescent Moon will glide by Venus, forming a gorgeous and mesmerizing pair of lights in the sunset sky."

It is called the Libree Conjunction, you see. I think I may go outside and ogle it. :evilgrin:

3. It'd be sweet to look at Venus in the daytime.

I need to try looking for it.

BTW, you want to know how big of an amateur astronomy nerd (or a nerd in general) I am? I got Orion and Scorpius tattooed on my forearms! :rofl:
