I miss the halcyon days of #AcademicTwitter where people would routinely live-tweet conferences. Very sad that I wasn't able to join friends and colleagues in Manchester for the EVN Symposium this week; even more sad that I can't follow along with the exciting science from home! ☹️
@astromeg.bsky.social"Starship is orbital" - feels like that's been a long time coming! Can't help feeling conflicted here. I'm looking forward to seeing humans on the Moon, but the prospect of the large number of satellites-per-launch that come with Starship is really not conducive to astronomy...
