Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for March 15, 2017

I need an explanation on the first panel….But I will stick around….

Do people still use ice packs? I’m thinking about getting one.

Janis looks great in her LBD! Wake up Arlo!

Paging Phil Plait. Paging Phil Plait. Call from Dr Tyson on line 2.

I see Arlo is learning from Dr. Mel of “Brewster Rockit”.

The moon’s day is 27 Earth days. See STROD, above.

Daylight savings time has set Arlo off for sure! He’s gone positively Vernal on us.

Someone must have just bought a telescope and started Googling Solar System facts.

Things are going to get weirder? So tomorrow is Arlo going to talk about the eccentric orbits of Mercury and Pluto?

The dawn of astronomical facts….

Did his cellphone melt?

So, Venus has the longest day of any planet in our solar system. It completes one rotation every 243 Earth days. Its day lasts longer than its orbit. It orbits the Sun every 224.65 Earth days, so a day is nearly 20 Earth days longer than its year

I wonder if Jimmy J ever marvels at the comments section???

So, in September we celebrate the Autumnal Equinox, and we call the season that it ushers in ‘Fall’ or ‘Autumn’. So, now the Vernal Equinox is just days away, and we call the season that it ushers in, ‘Spring’. So why don’t we also call it Vern? Hey, Vern is here, longer days, temps are rising, sun is shining, flowers blooming, sure do like Vern. Can’t wait for Vern. Vern’s a great time of the year. See? Real easy.
