Details:
The UK is at a relatively high latitude and comet grabbers have to face a late night/early morning shift to get a dark sky. This opportunity was too good to miss as a few of the brighter objects of the solar system had a get together ( astronomical distancing applies ). Venus and Uranus were just about to rise as well but in waiting I would have lost Jupiter and Saturn. It was like being sat on Mount Olympus in the realm of the gods.
