Man, up late again eh? We have had a wonderful
week of crystal clear nights with the added bonus
of aurora every night for five nights. As it was
warm enough we got out every night for the show.

No Aurora here. No clear night sky. But it is warm.
Midnight win.

Gonna be a sleepy day, I think. Better get a bottle of Diet Coke from the machine when I get in Ping!

Cheery Coke here, just the right amount of caffeine, last in the list of ingredients.

Mountain Dew for me.

Which contains brominated vegetable oil, a chemical that is banned in several countries.

In the United States, BVO was designated in 1958, as generally recognized as safe (GRAS),[2] but this was withdrawn by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 1970.[3] The U.S. Code of Federal Regulations currently imposes restrictions on the use of BVO as a food additive in the United States, limiting the concentration to 15 ppm,[4] limiting the amount of free fatty acids to 2.5 percent, and limiting the iodine value to 16.[5] BVO is used in Mountain Dew, manufactured by PepsiCo;[6] Powerade, Fanta Orange and Fresca made by Coca-Cola; and Squirt, Sun Drop and Sunkist Peach Soda, made by the Dr Pepper Snapple Group.[7] Numerous generic citrus sodas also use it, including "Clover Valley"/Dollar General sodas and Stars & Stripes.[citation needed] On May 5, 2014, Coca-Cola and PepsiCo said they will remove BVO from their products.

Health effects
The United States Food and Drug Administration considers BVO to be safe for use as a food additive.[5] However, there are case reports of adverse effects associated with excessive consumption of BVO-containing products. One case reported that a man who consumed two to four liters of a soda containing BVO on a daily basis experienced memory loss, tremors, fatigue, loss of muscle coordination, headache, and ptosis of the right eyelid, as well as elevated serum chloride.[15] In the two months it took to correctly diagnose the problem, the patient also lost the ability to walk. Eventually, bromism was diagnosed and hemodialysis was prescribed which resulted in a reversal of the disorder.
[snip]
An online petition at Change.org asking PepsiCo to stop adding BVO to Gatorade and other products collected over 200,000 signatures by January 2013.[7] The petition pointed out that since Gatorade is sold in countries where BVO is not approved, there is already an existing formulation without this ingredient. PepsiCo announced in January 2013, that it would no longer use BVO in Gatorade,[6][17] and announced May 5, 2014,[18] that it would discontinue use in all of its drinks, including Mountain Dew, however, as of July 26th, 2016, BVO is still an ingredient in Mountain Dew.

So much for removing BVO, the FDA needs to order PepsiCo to remove this as it's not approved as an ingredient.
