I have SM123 final on Monday.
Should be studying.
Spent the morning looking at SeeStar S50 videos, intercepted by the BlueSky check-ins.
It is going swimmingly.

It's important here to note what else within NASA science is being cut:
Earth Science: FY25 $2,138.9M → FY26 $1,035.9M, –51%
Astrophysics: FY25 $1,529.7M → FY26 $523.0M, –66%
Heliophysics: FY25 $805.0M → FY26 $432.5M, –47%
Biological & Physical Sciences: FY25 $87.5M → $25.0M, –71%

The second reason funding astrophysics is important is less tangible, but (imo) more important. Studying space fosters curiosity and helps us understand the universe and our place in it-not because we can make money from it or build a new technology, but for the sake of knowledge itself (4/n)
