I wish either the source or Wikipedia had details on where to look for this comet in the sky.

Netter Versuch. Als wäre Merrettich eine Pflanze und nicht eine cremeartige Masse, die in Gläsern erzeugt wird.

541·14 hours agoThe madman theory is a political theory commonly associated with the foreign policy of U.S. president Richard Nixon and his administration, who tried to make the leaders of hostile communist bloc countries think Nixon was irrational and volatile so that they would avoid provoking the U.S. in fear of an unpredictable response.
I took this introductory passage to be the current tradition. The quoted bible passage makes it look like more of a mandatory thing:
[5] If brethren dwell together, and one of them die, and have no child […]; her husband’s brother shall go in unto her, and take her to him to wife, and perform the duty of a husband’s brother unto her.
[7] And if the man like not to take his brother’s wife, then his brother’s wife shall go up to the gate unto the elders, and say: ‘My husband’s brother refuseth to raise up unto his brother a name in Israel; he will not perform the duty of a husband’s brother unto me.’
[9] then shall his brother’s wife […] loose his shoe from off his foot, and spit in his face; and […] say: ‘So shall it be done unto the man that doth not build up his brother’s house.’

nenenee, so funktioniert das nicht.
You’ve made the point clear to me. Thank you.
Personally I don’t like ordering clothes online, but I did find this shop which seems to have made it its point to produce women’s pants with big pockets: https://radianjeans.com/ No clue if they’re any good, since I’m neither in the market for women’s pants nor in the US.
It’s hard to judge from photos, but some of these show women putting their whole hand in the pockets: https://oldnavy.gap.com/shop/womens-pants-with-pockets-0aaz06b
If you don’t like tiny pockets, then why did you buy pants with tiny pockets? I seriously don’t understand the logic.
Men’s underpants come with flies and without flies. Those without are usually cheaper. If I want a fly, I buy those with a fly. I don’t buy underpants without a fly and then complain that I didn’t get a fly.
I believe you that pants with big pockets are hard to find and that it’s effort to buy them. But that still doesn’t add any sense to buying pants with tiny pockets.
Could it be because women keep buying them? I’ve never seen my mother wear pants without pockets, and when she bought a new jacket, the amount and placement of pockets was the first thing on her mind.
Only now I realize the significance of that. But still. How hard is it to not buy pocketless apparel?



I can’t edit my other comment, so I’ll but this here:
The source mentions the town Sion and the mountain Bietschhorn. Here they are on OpenStreetMap. So I guess the image is taken in an Eastern, maybe East-Northeastern direction.
The JPEG’s EXIF data say the image was recorded at 2026-04-09T04:26 (at least one of the timestamps says that. I’m taking this because the source also mentions the comet being visible just before sunrise).
According to shademap.app, the Sun rose between 7:00 and 9:00 (depending on your exact position in Sion—the terrain is mountainous). Since the mountains in the image are already getting sunlight, I think the EXIF timestamp is actually in UTC, which puts it at 06:26 local time.
Heading to Stellarium Web with that information I found that the Pegasus square is located between 70° and 90° (that is, East-Northeast to due East) and 10°–30° above the horizon. Eyeballing the image that is about the rectascension where the comet is visible.
So If you’re looking for the comet, search the Pegasus square and below about an hour before sunrise.
