Could this be any more Aussie?

It's #Pulsar confirmation day!
Then PhD student, Jocelyn Bell Burnell, actually detected the first signals from a pulsar on 6 Aug '67. From those results, Queen JBB connected the dots, this was astrophysical!
But after this first detection in Aug, there was nothing.
Until Nov 28.

🧪How do we image the planets with consumer hardware? A thread 🧵I’ll cover: 1) what makes planets hard to image? 2) What equipment is needed to overcome these challenges? and 3) what does the process look like? This is based on a video I made on this topic here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-fD... (1/8)
