The great Saturn Jupiter conjunction expected today has inspired so many online comments, including a joke amongst black commentators, who said the rare event will be granting them superpowers starting December the 21st. This urged many to post their own memes as they tried to expect the kind of superheroes they will be "turning" into.
Keep an eye to the sky for the Great Conjunction of 2020! On Dec 21 the two planets will appear to almost merge. That evening...Jupiter and Saturn will sit just 0.1 degrees apart...a mere one-fifth the width of the moon. The last time this happened was 1226 A.D.! pic.twitter.com/naaEQvtIgG
