A Suitable Orb

 Spring equinox is tonight at 10 PM, here in central US (in UK, it’s this coming morning, March 20 at 3 AM GMT)– – a suitable orb has been found for a tableau— to be constructed when I come home from work today. Hopefully bink will join us, as she is a masterful constructor.

    1. hi gz -- i think it happens at whatever time it would be where you are. for me in the midwest it will be at 10;06 pm CDT. for some fun facts see https://www.space.com/vernal-equinox-2024-spring-northern-hemisphere also of note: "As was previously noted, this will be the earliest that the vernal equinox will occur across the contiguous United States in 128 years.
