Thanks. As I watch the destruction of science agencies in the US somehow the thought of a guitar orbiting the Earth 139.5K times brings joy.

Mine was watching the space shuttle take off from the area with astronaut friends and families. Definitely a 'before' vs. 'after' moment in life.

Bummer on the cuts. I was the ENG representative to GRFP when I was at NSF and hate to see this great program get reduced in size. The list of past recipients and what they went on to do is humbling to read.

Just submit. If proposal pressure drops that is a reason to justify budget cuts.
