<SnoopJeDi> haha
<WeylandsWings> UmbralRaptop: is that for your quals? Having to retake QM and EM
<UmbralRaptop> yes
<WeylandsWings> That sounds miserable. My condolences
<UmbralRaptop> yeah, that made today an extremely "your best is not good enough" sort of day

<egg|cell|egg> > Dear colleagues,
<egg|cell|egg> Quasars and AGNs, which play a fundamental role in the evolution of
<egg|cell|egg> their host galaxies, are also used to build fundamental celestial
<egg|cell|egg> reference systems (i.e., the ICRF) because of their extreme distances
<egg|cell|egg> and therefore negligible proper motions. With the advent of the Gaia
<egg|cell|egg> astrometric mission, however, visual-wavelength astrometry has entered
<egg|cell|egg> the micro-arcsecond domain, in which significant positional offsets have
<egg|cell|egg> been found with the radio positions of quasars.
<UmbralRaptop> whelp

<SnoopJeDi> I can't even parse that
<SnoopJeDi> What's the link between Gaia's astrometry (which is strictly Milky Way, right?) and quasars?
<SnoopJeDi> oh nope, I'm just way off about what Gaia does. figures
<SnoopJeDi> Didn't realize DR2's coordinate system had anything to do with quasars, but TIL
<UmbralRaptop> Hipparcos was milky way only
