 night sky - devonite
for the last 3 years I;ve been going over to my friends house on a fri or sat eve to play chess and enjoy a couple of tins. As I go home between 11.30 - M/N Orion is usually due south, directly in line with his front path at an angle of about 45 degrees, it was for the last couple of years anyway, we often commented on it. Fri night, I was leaving at 12am, and saw Orion for the first time this year, I usually start seeing it about early November, but the sky has been too cloudy this back end. Strangely, instead of being right outside his front door, it was way off to the right, about 1.30 on clock face analogy. Has the Earths rotation slowed that much over the last 12 months? surely not! Anybody else noticed anything strange /out of place? could it be anything to do with all the strange weather the world is seeing lately? I'll take more notice this week, if it's clear!
