I tend to think this gets forgotten in discussions of science funding. There are many that want all three and that probably underlies a lot of the frustrations with the current postdoc issues.

THis is a joke right???
As a Brit living overseas the stamps on Christmas card are always fun to see. I also enjoyed the astronomical theme on this one. But seeing King Charles III profile on a stamp was an adjustment… 🔭

That HUGE x-class solar flare that went off a few days back is impressive. The most powerful since 2017. 🔭🧪
Question for any helio-science folks on here:
Looking at NASA SDO filters, the timestamp on the flares is in the 10-min range - does it take this long to propagate through solar atmosphere?
