On Dec 21, 2020, Jupiter & Saturn slide within a tenth of a degree of each other. If your vision is no better than 20/100, the two planets will look as one. Close encounters among celestial objects are “conjunctions” Deborah Byrd & Bruce McClure say more: https://t.co/tbFk5BVooV https://t.co/Cn9tpzwzHu — PolitiTweet.org

Between now and Dec 21 Saturn & Jupiter approach each other on the sky until a mere tenth of a degree separates them. Last time this happened Galileo was alive.

If Archimedes were a bird… A thirsty Magpie, displaces water with stones, allowing it to drink continually from the top of the bottle. That’s Badass. https://t.co/CWwhM4DY6Z — PolitiTweet.org

For some reason, the painting is already alive in my head, but this helps even more. — PolitiTweet.org

van Gogh’s “The Starry Night”, Saint Rémy de Provence, France [Museum of Modern Art, NYC] Analysis of the crescent Moon and Venus, reveals that the painting captures the early morning hours near the Summer Solstice 1889 — just before sunrise. So for me, it’s “The Starry Dawn” https://t.co/3JJJdZZSmO — PolitiTweet.org

@tw_cunningham @CMAnderson247 @PardonMyTake @PFTCommenter @BarstoolBigCat A backward pass in their moving coordinate system. Formally, it’s a “Galilean Transformation” in which the running back was behind the QB at all times during the pass and catch. Fully legit in the world of physics. — PolitiTweet.org

Would indeed be ironic if Donald Trump lost the presidential election by a margin of votes equal to the number of his supporters who died from COVID-19, for having refused to wear masks in public. — PolitiTweet.org

@johnny0129 Do you say Presidential Elections are rare? The Olympics? The World Cup? If so, then okay. — PolitiTweet.org

How often does a Blue Moon land on Halloween, you may ask? Depends. It could be November 1 for you, while time zones to your West are still trick-or-treating. Back in the 20th and 21st centuries, the USA saw eight Halloween Blue Moons: 1906 1925 1944 2020 2039 2058 2077 & 2096. https://t.co/KxYQeQLY6w — PolitiTweet.org

The expression “Once in a Blue Moon” is colloquial for “The thing hardly ever happens.” But If you meant it literally, then that thing will occur every two or three years. So, like most cosmic happenings, Blue Moons aren't entirely rare, even if we want to think they are. — PolitiTweet.org
Neil deGrasse Tyson @neiltyson
Blue Moon alert: This year, a Full Moon lands on Halloween. With a 29.5-day cycle of phases, any time you squeeze two full moons into a month, the second one is called the “Blue Moon.” Yes, that means February is S.O.L. in its bid for Blue Moons. https://t.co/6u7g95ZCH1 — PolitiTweet.org

Reflections on the statistics of my followers: Nearly (only?) 400 out of 185,000 respondents have been hospitalized for COVID-19. Of course we don’t know how many have died. But for all others, please continue to stay smart, stay healthy, and heed the advice medial professionals — PolitiTweet.org

Reflections on the statistics of my followers: 7% of you are Vegan/Vegetarian, which is close to the 8% of you in the world’s population. Meanwhile, nearly 90% are omnivores, I among you. Although lately I consume dead animals no more than about two days a week. — PolitiTweet.org

Reflections on the statistics of my followers: More than 80% of you are non-religious. But one in 14 (7%) identify as having religion as a way of life. You follow me knowing that not all of my content resonates with your views. Thank you for coming along for the ride. — PolitiTweet.org

Reflections on the statistics of my followers: One fourth of you identify as politically Centrist with more than half identifying as Liberal. So the Conservative voices that arise in my threads, though ardent, are a small minority of all followers. — PolitiTweet.org
