I've not got 2½ hours to watch that!

I tried to see it last night but unfortunately it was too cloudy.

Some of a religions persuasion might see this as a 'Bethlehem' star - a second coming to save us all from the pandemic, which has fallen nicely in line with the release of the first vaccine.   :thumb:

The star of Bethlehem would have been a close conjunction of Jupiter with Venus which is a considerably brighter planet than Saturn.  But you can fast forward the video.
