If the stars are on topic at the moment, we should probably acknowledge
the fact that "Mars is bright tonight; unusually bright" - or so it's alleged.
But I just went out for a look and it's too cloudy to see.  At Glasgow's
latitude it's also very close to the horizon, about 10 degrees up, or maybe
outright invisible.  Should be due south at midnight, a mere 42 million miles
over thataway, I think.

I suppose Mars will still be nearly as bright tomorrow night, and for a while
longer.  If anyone sees an unexpected spurt of flame from the place,
give a shout.
