spent most of this time passing through the dense atoms that make the
core and just 8 minutes to reach us once it had left the Sun.

Hello Everyone,
Here is a news item that would be too late if we waited for the next ANS
bulletins.
I'm posting this as a favor for Tom W5KUB since many hams enjoy his live
amateur radio webcasts. AMSAT is not sponsoring any part of this event nor
endorses any of the products or commercial
that programming today
is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and
better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger
and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning.
