if i need to read something its datasheet for my reports

2019-01-20 09:39:11 UTC  

really pain in the ass to translate

2019-01-20 09:39:23 UTC  

English not your first language?

2019-01-20 09:39:29 UTC  

nah hebrew

2019-01-20 09:39:38 UTC  

I mean half the reason I chose solar is it's pretty much the one branch of astrophysics that it's actually applicable to stuff

2019-01-20 09:39:45 UTC  

thats why sometimes i misspell things so my bad

2019-01-20 09:40:09 UTC  

Like the Gaia data is incredible, kind of hard to explain why it fucking matters though

2019-01-20 09:40:20 UTC  

you plan to work in that subject later on or plan to study something else?

2019-01-20 09:40:40 UTC  

Torch I wish I had the fucking brain for it, the sun is wild

2019-01-20 09:40:46 UTC  

Hello people

2019-01-20 09:41:20 UTC  

i only got like 1 point in physics so im sure i wont be able to handle whatever torch is studying

2019-01-20 09:41:25 UTC  

I'm curious whether the solar cycles producing fewer and fewer sunspots each time is going to bottom out completely or if it'll start going back up soon

2019-01-20 09:41:33 UTC  

in solar physics i mean

2019-01-20 09:41:34 UTC  

If you've got the maths for it Parker's original paper on the solar wind is incredible

2019-01-20 09:41:51 UTC  

huh cool

2019-01-20 09:42:06 UTC  

just found the south west's ambulance pager channel on 153 mhz

2019-01-20 09:42:37 UTC  

I never got a formal education, I had to take the GED here in America. I got a perfect score for english and history and shit but I got 3 points away from failing in math.

2019-01-20 09:42:45 UTC  

Oh man, thats sometimes better then any tv show to listen to their radio signals

2019-01-20 09:42:55 UTC  

well it's data burst so

2019-01-20 09:42:55 UTC  

only time i hear the radio and even then it was a while ago was to hear galgalach

2019-01-20 09:43:09 UTC  

based on a couple observations of comet tails, the guy derives a model of the solar of the wind that's not changed much since

2019-01-20 09:43:26 UTC  

used to love my old scanner @Leeroy

2019-01-20 09:43:47 UTC  

firestick aerial the lot

2019-01-20 09:43:58 UTC  

I'll stick it in scitech actually

2019-01-20 09:45:00 UTC  

I'd read it

2019-01-20 09:46:15 UTC  

Whats a gwarnin

2019-01-20 09:47:07 UTC  

looking out for RNLI pager freqs lol

2019-01-20 09:47:35 UTC  

it's an interesting bit of kit, it's a lot harder finding active broadcasts than you'd think

2019-01-20 09:47:49 UTC  

What you got lee?

2019-01-20 09:47:57 UTC  

Whats the kit i mean

2019-01-20 09:48:00 UTC  

a GRE PSR-282

2019-01-20 09:48:07 UTC  

200 channel scanner

2019-01-20 09:48:26 UTC  

1 sec imma google

2019-01-20 09:49:35 UTC  

Ah thats pretty cool

2019-01-20 09:49:51 UTC  

How did you come across owning one?

2019-01-20 09:50:25 UTC  

you ever messed with CB or HAM radio @Leeroy

2019-01-20 09:50:40 UTC  

nah but I knew a nice old lady back in the 90's who did

2019-01-20 09:50:45 UTC  

this was a gift haha

2019-01-20 09:50:52 UTC  

christmas gift from a marine engineer

2019-01-20 09:50:52 UTC  

Sweet

2019-01-20 09:51:30 UTC  

My dad said he used to own a CB
