Its sun does, yes. The article specifically calls that out as a scripted event.

Sounds like the local equivalent of Equestria at War for Hearts of Iron (three major continents, many countries on each, timeline expanded into the 1960s).

Always liked the fact that they chose Yamato as the vessel to fail due to a design flaw.

It is believed by some that the eponymous battleship sank more quickly than she otherwise might have due to a design flaw in the torpedo bulges.

Because everything has to be a video now. Ugh.

Ship navigation lights and aircraft lights.

The intended purpose is to indicate a vessel’s current location and course so that other operators can see and avoid, especially at night.

Larger aircraft are also fitted with collision avoidance systems that automatically prompt pilots to climb or descend (and synchronise with the system on the other aircraft).

Bonus: day shapes are displayed on vessel mastheads to indicate the operating status of a vessel during daylight hours.

"We Didn't Start the Fire" set at the end of different series?

I spent the morning listening to the Fall Out Boy version of "We Didn't Start the Fire". Since Star Trek in the Kelvin timeline and elsewhere often re-uses songs from our time, I thought it would be hilarious if "We Didn't Start the Fire" ended up being updated every 35 years or so, till the 32nd century....

That’s a lot of why I don’t like the update much.

Joel himself doesn’t think much of the song — he finds the melody lacking — so I doubt we’ll see him update it any time soon.
