Retrograde Mars
Why would Mars appear to move backwards? Most of the time, the apparent motion of Mars in Earth's sky is in one direction, slow but steady in front of the far distant stars. About every two years, however, the Earth passes Mars as they orbit around the Sun. During the most recent such pass starting late last year, Mars as usual, loomed large and bright. Also during this time, Mars appeared to move backwards in the sky, a phenomenon called retrograde motion. Featured here is a series of images digitally stacked so that all of the stars coincide. Here, Mars appears to trace out a narrow loop in the sky. At the center of the loop, Earth passed Mars and the retrograde motion was the highest. Retrograde motion can also be seen for other Solar System planets.

What kind of lunatic needs 55 gallons of water-based lube!?
Lube generally has a shelf life of a few years. So bulk would be useful to industries that use it frequently and are looking to be frugal. Vets that deal with a large number of breeding livestock come to mind for aid in birthing and exams. And obviously the porn industry. Though I actually know some retirement community residents that buy this stuff for their swinger parties.
A gay bar I used to frequent fills a kiddie pool up with this stuff and has lube wrestling contests, so that’s one use
