Labour’s new deputy leader and Kamala Harris illustrate the importance of being Number 2. Guess who else was Number 2? Yes, it was Jesus, in a sort of Number 1 sort of way.

Comet C/2025 A6 Lemmon
If you look west just after sunset just now, and you’re lucky enough to have a clear sky and not a lot of light pollution, then you just might see this comet.
I’m not that lucky, but I do have a camera with a 50mm lens. So last night I took some images of that area of the sky, stacked them, and there it was. I’ll need to do a post on the equipment I used for this. I’ve been doing quite a bit of experimenting over the last few months and this is a new setup. But that’s for another day.
A close up, using the smart Seestar S50 telescope, showed up some beautiful detail.
These two images were taken about an hour apart. Notice how far the comet has moved relative to the background stars.
You can find out more about this comet at the Sky at Night web site.

Real time charts of its position are also available online.

And in the Big News today from a Faith Perspective, autumn. Isn’t it lovely. All the trees change colour and shed their leaves, ready for a new coating in the spring. Wouldn’t it be great if we, and by “we” I do of course mean “you”, could shed all our negative, evil thoughts and practices, and enjoy spring as a better person than the one we, i.e. you, are now.
Well the Invisible Magic Friend says you can.

The Pope and the King have prayed together. Isn’t that just amazing? I bet no one’s mentioned that on TFTD yet.
But the Pope and the King are not the ultimate authorities. They both report to the Invisible Magic Friend. They then tell us what the Invisible Magic Friend wants. It turns out that the Invisible Magic Friend really wants us to give more money and power to popes and kings. He hasn’t got round to mentioning internet billionaires yet, but I’m sure he will.
There is no other news today from a faith perspective.

And in the Big News today from a Faith Perspective, happy two and a half weeks to go to Remembrance Day. We remember the fallen in the World Wars, but how many remember the Bengal Famine of 1943? 3 million people died.
Guess who else died? Yes, it was Jesus, although only temporarily. We know this because of the eye witness accounts of someone who heard it from their father who knew someone who says they spoke to someone who was there. His death was THAT significant at the time. That’s why we remember Jesus so much more than the victims of the Bengal Famine.
