A quotation from T. S. Eliot

Jellicle Cats come out tonight,
Jellicle Cats come one come all:
The Jellicle Moon is shining bright —
Jellicles come to the Jellicle Ball.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-British poet, critic, playwright [Thomas Stearns Eliot]
Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats, “The Song of the Jellicles” (1939)

      Alt...Time-lapse video of the Venus-Moon conjunction today. The Moon, a tiny sliver, is only 10% illuminated, and Venus appears bright a fraction of a degree above. Both drift from top left to the bottom right corner as the camera does not track their motion. Some clouds pass by.

        One of the advantages of being in the week of the shortest days of the year is biking home from work after dark, in cold clear air, with the universe sparkling overhead.

        Here's this evening with the Moon, Venus, Jupiter, and Mercury all lined up above the western horizon, from Lincoln, NZ.

          Powerful worldly rulers have branded their people with a flag showing something similar, as in the mostly Muslim nation of Pakistan.

            I managed to get this photo last night.

            I had to stand on a ladder and lean out of the top Velux window as there was a tree in the way from the other windows!

            The thin crescent of the Moon lit from the lower right side of the image, with Venus above it at about the one o'clock position, with a space of about 3/4 of the Moon's diameter between them. The Moon's craters can be clearly seen, with shadows, along the terminator between light and dark on the surface of the crescent. The background is the near black of the sky.

              Venus is the bright dot close to the lunar crescent, which has a hint of earthshine. Jupiter is the dimmer dot near the center. A jet contrail to the top of Jupiter photobombs the framing, or makes it nicer depending on how you view it.

              I took the photo with my Pixel 7 Pro phone from Milan, Italy, on June 17, 2026 at 20:08 UTC.

              View of an urban area at dusk from an upper floor of an apartment building, with some treetops at left and the upper floors of apartment buildings in the distance at the horizon, near the bottom right of the frame. On the clear sky, close to the thin lunar waxing crescent, is a bright white dot. To the top of this pair is the horizontal, thin, short white line of a jet contrail. At the center of the frame is a dimmer white dot.

                  NASA is going back to the moon after 50 years ... on April fool's day.

                  The irony ...

                  "How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit."

                  Artemis (Diana) is Apollo's twin sister. Together the two are 'Lucifer'.

                  They are chief deities of the solar worship cult.
