Look west after sunset tonight to catch a mini planetary parade.

On June 12, Mercury, Venus, and Jupiter will appear together low in the western sky shortly after sunset, forming one of the most accessible planetary alignments of 2026.

All three can be seen with the naked eye. Venus will be the brightest and easiest to spot, glowing strongly in the twilight. Jupiter will also stand out as a bright point nearby, while Mercury will sit much closer to the horizon, making it the hardest to find.

The ideal viewing window is around 30 to 60 minutes after sunset, when the sky is still bright but the planets are visible.

No telescope is needed just a clear, unobstructed view of the western horizon should be enough to see the lineup.

Although they look close together in the sky, the planets are actually extremely far apart in space. Their alignment is only an optical effect caused by all planets orbiting the Sun in roughly the same flat plane.

The display continues beyond tonight. In the days that follow, the arrangement shifts, and around June 16–17, a thin crescent Moon joins the scene, making the sky even more striking.

Mercury also reaches one of its best viewing positions around mid-June, giving a rare chance to spot the usually elusive planet.

If skies are clear, step outside after sunset and look low to the west you’ll see three worlds briefly sharing the evening sky.

🚨 French authorities have confirmed Israeli interference in May's Scottish elections.

Will @YvetteCooperMP follow France's lead and summon the Israeli ambassador? Or will she continue Labour's tradition of letting them away with absolutely anything?

What is he hiding?

The same people who were telling us George Floyd was a career criminal are the same people who won’t mention the following facts:

>Stephen Ogilvie was known to his Sudanese attacker Hadi Alodid.

>Stephen had 161 previous convictions including a female stroke victim.

They were actual drug buddies according to their honest neighbours.

🚨 Glenn Greenwald just broke it down…

A sitting US President, who ran on ending wars, is being openly defied by a foreign Prime Minister. Not behind closed doors. In public. Repeatedly.

Trump is a Zionist. His family is tied to Israel. He is owned. But he wants this war over. The midterms are coming. His base is fracturing. His promises, and legacy, are rotting in public.

Trump has repeatedly begged Netanyahu to stop.

Netanyahu didn’t just tell him to STFU.

He went straight to Congress, who AIPAC has bribed with $28M this election cycle alone, and passed Section 224, LEGALLY FUSING the US and Israeli military structures.

Democracy BYPASSED In broad daylight.

This is what @ggreenwald has spent years warning people about.

The most powerful man on earth can’t end a war his own voters want ended, because the lobby doesn’t just own the President.

It owns the building he works in.

David Lammy’s proposals to restrict the right to jury trial have been examined by the Justice Committee of the House of Commons.

And. Well. Um.

It’s *quite* the report.

I think it’s actually worse than politely scathing.

Dress it up however you like - this racist violence has been deliberately whipped up by far right politicians & their cowardly wannabes in the supposed mainstream.

You are either fighting against the anti-migrant narrative or you are with these thugs.

Israel is not a Jewish state

Jews are not a nationality

Judaism is an ancient religious collective.

Zionism is a nationalist movement created in 1896 by ppl who were pronounced atheists

They wanted to be called Jewish but without actually believing in Judaism

That's Zionism
