A few nights ago I was surprised to see Venus still fairly high up in the sky at 11:30pm BST. Checked Stellarium and learned that — contrary to conventional wisdom — you *can* see Venus at midnight GMT!
Here’s my article (and photo) for @skyatnightmag…

Where were the financial controls??? 383 Amazon purchases? Why is a CEO making hundreds of purchases in the first place? The treasurer has a lot to answer for - in terms of competence if not criminality.

It's only season 2 of Trumpy Days and already we're at the episode where Hegseth jumps the shark.

@AJamesMcCarthy @Burki677 So instead of arguing with Flat-Earthers, I think in future I’ll just ask them to prove that they are. NOT to prove that the Earth is flat, but to prove that they *believe*.
Let’s watch them tie themselves in knots proving they actually believe this nonsense.

@AJamesMcCarthy @Burki677 I have a new theory about Flat-Earthers: they don’t actually believe the Earth is flat. They just like being controversial, stirring things up, being the centre of attention.

@AndrewxxP This tweet deserves massive acclaim. @AndrewxxP should get cards and letters — or at least ‘likes’ — from people he doesn’t even know.

Given that children have an average calorie intake of around 1,500-1,700kcal/day, I'd like to see the error bars on those estimated reductions of 0.9 and 2.1 per day.
