I think this is the reason the world needs it. All of us need his example.
needs a catchy limerick for memorization. periapsis in abstract, perihelion for the Sun, perigee for the Earth, and periastron for binary stars (inherited by exoplanets, which are really just very small binary stars), lil omega, a.o.p., the forgotten one, etc
that's an easy fix. just plot the upper 1 sigma uncertainty on argument of periastron on the abscissa, and the lower 1 sigma uncertainty on the tess input catalog stellar effective temperature on the ordinate. basically as informative as m or r vs P imo
we found the same with nircam last year! two independent instruments showing strong CO2 features and the power of JWST at high contrasts
woohoo a high throughput coronagraph in space π

ββThey dragged little Greta [Thunberg] by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others,β the Turkish activist ErsinΓelik, a participant in the Sumud flotilla, told Anadolu news agency.β+

truly elegant paper!
Let that sink in
"Despite its extreme population density, Gaza was mostly self-sufficient in vegetables and poultry, and met much of the populationβs demand for olives, fruit and milk. But last month the UN reported that just 1.5% of its agricultural land now remains both accessible and undamaged."

awesome! at a great separation for lots of instruments too
need to take a break from fellowship drafts because i think im driving myself crazy
