Nice coffee break at #DPS2022, caught up with a bunch of people and now I'm off to Pluto, where Leslie Young is talking about a recently observed occultation with her habitual dry-as-desert wit.
Leslie Young: "One site only got data on egress; they were supposed to be part of the picket fence [a closely spaced line of telescopes] but their RV was infested by ants." #AstronomerProblems #AustraliaProblems #DPS2022
No scientific results to report yet, but Young shows they got absolutely gorgeous data during the 1 Jun 2022 occultation of Pluto by a magnitude 13 star, multiple chords with two showing a spectacular, strong central flash. Despite the ants. #DPS2022
