If any character has a passion for being technically correct it is
Hermione and if there is ever a time to be technically correct it is
in potions class where precision is paramount.

I think you mean astronomical analysis, and maybe you could see a
little bit of Orion very near the Horizon, maybe, but there is no way
you're going to see Venus at midnight. I have no doubt that if an
editor had explained to JKR why Saturn and Scorpius would be better
she would have agreed to change those two words.

One other thing about book 7 confuses me, when Hagrid is running
toward the spiders yelling "don't hurt them" is he telling the kids
not to hurt the spiders or the spiders not to hurt the kids, I think
it's the second but I'm not sure.
