I still think we need a Funky Radio Object Detecting Observatory (FRODO) to study these ORCs.

Everytime you call me a wonderful person, I become slightly less toxic in online games because of the guilt that I am not a wonderful person.

Anton is a very good teacher. Not sure if I need this information about the universe, but at the same time it is so interesting and mind boggling

Just a note, Anton, that from the paper on Diprotodon, it's likely smaller and closer: "According to the paper, ASKAP-EMU images show that G278.94+1.35 has an angular size of, at most, 200 by 194 arcminutes, which corresponds to a diameter of 512 by 495.5 light years. However, further inspection found that G278.94+1.35 is located at a much closer distance than previously thought—about 3,300 light years away. This suggests that its physical size is smaller, most likely 189 x 182 light years."

When we *_finally_* get the USS Enterprise to investigate all these weird phenomena, I wonder how many of our best current scientific hypotheses will turn out to be wildly wrong.
