Great photo!
Notice to the right is the plane of the Milky Way galaxy plunging vertically into the horizon. The galactic center is about where the MW meets the horizon in this shot. There, in the constellation Sagittarius, some 23,000 light years distant, lies a supermassive black hole 2-3 million times the mass of the sun.

Ignore the date at the lower left of this graphic that I posted above. Didn't notice it when I found this image via an images search for the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction. Otherwise, it's basically the situation now, only they are even closer here now in Dec.

Great Conjunction
Throughout ancient history, events in the heavens were interpreted by ancients as forecasting important events that would be seen on Earth.
In this case, superstitious fools like Kalifornia's Newsome, NY's Cuomo, Pennsylvania's Wolf will see the great conjunction as forecasting 6 more months of CORONA virus lockdowns.
They won't let a unique astronomical event go to waste.
