This one-

“There’s nothing in the street
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced by-the-bye
And the parting on the left
Is now the parting on the right
And the beards have all grown longer overnight

I’ll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I’ll get on my knees and pray
We don’t get fooled again
Don’t get fooled again”

Because I mentioned getting fooled again-

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss...

That is beautiful. Is it one of those things that is already dead and gone by the time we see it?

Yep… The so-called Veil Nebula is about 1,400 light-years distant, per this posting from the APOD site last year.

I totally agree that people can’t conceptualize it to even know HOW bad it will be.

Thank you! I will not be able to resist the schadenfreude-watching the gnashing of teeth and hand wailing of those who believed all the hype will go a long way to lightening my mood...
