Morning

Other languages, like Dutch, Scots and German, may use a single word – morgen – to signify both "morning" and "tomorrow".

For some, the word morning may refer to the period immediately following waking up, irrespective of the current time of day.

This modern sense of morning is due largely to the worldwide spread of electricity, and the independence from natural light sources.

[7] Despite the less favorable lighting conditions for optical astronomy, dawn and morning can be useful for observing objects orbiting close to the Sun.

Morning (and evening) serves as the optimum time period for viewing the inferior planets Venus and Mercury.

It is a popular time to hunt for comets, as their tails grow more prominent as these objects draw closer to the Sun.
