<UmbralRaptop> *planets* occulting planets?
<egg> UmbralRaptop: yeah I've linked it here a while back I think
<egg> or its arxiv equivalent perhaps
<UmbralRaptop> Possibly
<B787_300> UmbralRaptop: sure why not... it seems logical that you might be able to detect that
<egg> B787_300: well, not with current opticks
<egg> but in principle sure, and Luger et al. model that
<UmbralRaptop> B787_300: I'm just amazed that the alignments work. Also, 1.4 per day? o_O
<egg> also what happens with highly anisotropic albedo eyeballs
<egg> UmbralRaptop: well, by construction if you're seeing transits to start with things are *very* edge-on
<egg> and TRAPPIST-1 is fast
<UmbralRaptop> egg: spacial resolution happens
<egg> UmbralRaptop: you should try Principia TRAPPIST-1
<UmbralRaptop> hm
<B787_300> egg: why not with current optics... as long as most of the light is falling on a single pixel with good noise characteristics that has been well characterized...
<egg> B787_300: because that's what comes out of their modeling, it's below the noise on current instruments
<egg> they need JWST or Origins
<B787_300> Ah
<UmbralRaptop> Like, we might some day (as in <10 years?) have maps of some TRAPPIST planets comparable to pre-2015 maps of Pluto.
<egg> Ꙩ_ꙩ
<B787_300> Didnt read the paper just part of the abstract. Limited data on this connection
<UmbralRaptop> egg: IKR!
<B787_300> UmbralRaptop: something something moores law for astronomy
<UmbralRaptop> B787_300: hah
<B787_300> Hey you are the one that should be pushing the edge of astronomy
bofh has joined #kspacademia
<UmbralRaptop> Well, yes. Assuming I survive quals.
<B787_300> When are quals for you again?
<UmbralRaptop> the 22nd and 23rd
<B787_300> Of this month?
<UmbralRaptop> yes
<B787_300> Oh dear
<egg> !wpn UmbralRaptop

<bofh> also I am amused at the Rome convo I missed
<bofh> tbh it seems like Rome for B787_300 is like, the bad parts of Paris with none of the good.
<bofh> (there is obviously a lot of good, either that or I have eggstremely strange tastes :P)
<bofh> (speaking of those uh there is much approval of Alain Ducasse from my friend)
<egg> bofh: :D
<egg> bofh: "A cheesecake created by French chef Alain Ducasse for Thomas Pesquet’s six-month mission on the International Space Station was sent to the Chinese astronauts."
<bofh> also I love how they will package the chocolate into aluminum thermal bags for at least *some* anti-melting; it actually seems to have worked pretty well even.
<egg> bofh: astronauts thanking for cake: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXA2jhTPiC4
<bofh> rofl nice
<bofh> advance warning: I can youtube but it's *very* slow (since it's taking a route past golden shield, and also thru an ssh socks4 proxy).
<bofh> so it may take a few mins for me to see that. it's d/ling, in any case.
<egg> bofh: subtitles from the relevant part: "we have tasted the European space foods / and on my birthday I particularly tasted the cakes provided by ESA / very delicious / I would like to express my gratitude to all friends who have made their great efforts to make this happen"
<bofh> okay, thanks. also, APPROVAL.
<bofh> gods I legit wish I bought more of this, the two of us mostly went thru all of it in like 20 mins.
<egg> "European space foods" is a fun wording :-p
<bofh> it is :p
<egg> !acr -add:EAC European Astronaut Centre
<Qboid> egg: I added the explanation for this acronym.
<egg> !acr -add:ACC Astronaut Center of China
<Qboid> egg: I added the explanation for this acronym.
<egg> !acr -add:CMSA China Manned Space Agency
<Qboid> egg: I added the explanation for this acronym.

<egg> bofh: probably not going to get much observing done :-/ https://www.meteoblue.com/de/wetter/vorhersage/woche/villequier_frankreich_2968472
<bofh> yuck, that's like, stereotypical Norman weather, lunatic edition.
<egg> bofh: I mean, clearly summer, it's fairly warm
<egg> but yeah, optical is not going to work
<egg> (cows should be OK)
egg is now known as egg|zzz|egg
<egg|zzz|egg> bofh: also goodnight and have a nice conference
<bofh> egg|zzz|egg: goodnight? it's like 7:15AM :p but will do, thanks! :)
