And that was the cause of her downfall.....
.... because the more she said the less likely anyone was to vote for her.
True.

Good morning America! You all seem thrilled about Biden’s moon rock. Its symbolism, of the scientific and exploratory achievements that have been made – and will ideally soon be surpassed – certainly hits home.

What you might not know is that rock has an *epic* backstory. 1/x

If it’s clear with you, tonight is a good night to see the icy, distant planet Uranus. Find the Moon, find the reddish dot to its right (Mars) and then look for a bluish and MUCH DIMMER dot down and left of that.

You’ll need binoculars to spot Uranus as it’s so dim.

Movement of Saturn and its moons.

[Popular Astronomy @popastro]

Jupiter & Saturn are getting closer and closer in the SW sky and will appear closest on Monday evening (21st)

But, if you are lucky enough to have a clear view of the SW horizon and the opportunity to observe, do look for them on every clear early evening

T-minus 20 minutes.

Today’s launch will be SpaceX’s final mission of 2020, a year that included the first two flights of astronauts on SpaceX’s Crew Dragon, the launch of 833 Starlink satellites, and two US Space Force missions.
