Likewise as a climate scientist who began in radio astronomy I can’t understand how such a central and iconic part of your science infrastructure could be lost to current and future generations. 😥

Had a fair bit of that lately too but today was a bit of recompense with a 1 in 146 second shot! Wordle 1,864 2/6 ⬛🟨⬛⬛🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

Me, daughter S and Pandora at Mt. Hotham last year. I'm quoted about my hope that Miss S will be able to enjoy the snow until she is my age. Science says 'maybe'...

The article says “Most of the accounts have at least one admin based in Vietnam listed in their transparency information. Some have admins in Sri Lanka, the Philippines and the United States.” But I suspect this is almost irrelevant to the source of $. See where Hanson spends her time for clues.

Reminded today of this critical piece of reporting that escaped me. Maybe others too, so here it is: www.abc.net.au/news/2026-03...

I found this neat tool that lets you generate text and images just from your ideas. It's really good!
