We have money for everything except the useful stuff. Damn politics
They JUST photographed a black hole 🤦♂️ WE NEED THE X-RAY SPECTRUM!
The fact that we can even do this is so incredible, not being able to fund it would be such a missed opportunity for everyone on Earth.
🔭 The Chandra X-ray Observatory has been crucial in space imaging. What are your thoughts on its potential decommissioning?
I was born in the late 70's so I grew up with the old blurry photos. Hubble photos were leaps better in quality.
We can't lose this connection to the universe! Who knows what's left out there for us to discover...
This is where those mega donors should invest in…not in a person, but actual science.
I found out yesterday that my wife has never been to a planetarium. I grew up outside of Atlanta in the 70s and early 80s and was so fortunate to benefit from the old model of public education. We took field trips. We had speakers from all different walks of life come and talk to us about life after school. We had mock elections for each major election while I grew up in grade school. We had music and theater classes, while we kept pace in both science and math, since we weren't subject to the common core's depleted approach. We have a 2 year old boy and a little girl next month. We might not have the same education system we used to, but my wife and I are products of that era and we have every intention of carrying that spirit forward with our little ones. I can't wait till my boy can stay still long enough to enjoy the planetarium. He already loves stars and the moon. Thanks Neil for always encouraging us to keep looking up.
If they are, indeed, discontinuing the Chandra project due to money and not equipment failure then I will be a little saddened. I worked on the mirror assembly for Chandra and it has provided much valuable data into deep space objects. So while I'm sad to see it reach the end of it's mission I'm very proud to have part of the team that made it possible.
As I write this, the recent discussions reviewing NASA’s budget, they were instructed to keep funding and operating Chandra which gives many the hope they a path forward to keep it operational is forthcoming.
