knock, knock

I'm not a serial killer or a vampire, and I will happily discuss Venus with you. We can even do it at a nice, safe distance! I'll apologize now if that doesn't advance your fiction, or any erotic fantasies of frustrated vampires you may have.

I really want to build a set-up that can properly observe the planet deep into twilight. I've read that twilight is the time when you can observe the almost-legendary "ashen light". Given recent discoveries around a very narrow atmospheric window that lets you just sort of see the surface, in a super-blurry way, I'm wondering if these two phenomena are related. Given the Trump antipathy to planetary science, and Venus exploration in particular, I would find this pretty satisfying.

... unless you were referring to Aphrodite, and not the planet.
