That yellow laser is part of an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_optics">adaptive optics</a> system. Astronomy tools are REALLY cool!comment:www.metafilter.com,2012:site.113986-4247419Mon, 19 Mar 2012 10:37:15 -0800cmanBy: jiawen

Reminds me of the feeling of lying down under the Milky Way -- looking up into the stars, and being reminded of how we're all part of the wider universe.comment:www.metafilter.com,2012:site.113986-4247485Mon, 19 Mar 2012 11:12:48 -0800jiawenBy: kyrademon

Off-topic, my astronomer SO also likes watching the bit of Quantum of Solace where they blow up the Paranal Observatory Residencia, so she can point at rooms where she's stayed as they explode.comment:www.metafilter.com,2012:site.113986-4247870Mon, 19 Mar 2012 14:41:46 -0800kyrademon
¡°Why?¡± asked Larry, in his practical way. "Sergeant," admonished the Lieutenant, "you mustn't use such language to your men." "Yes," accorded Shorty; "we'll git some rations from camp by this evenin'. Cap will look out for that. Meanwhile, I'll take out two or three o' the boys on a scout into the country, to see if we can't pick up something to eat." Marvor, however, didn't seem satisfied. "The masters always speak truth," he said. "Is this what you tell me?" MRS. B.: Why are they let, then? My song is short. I am near the dead. So Albert's letter remained unanswered¡ªCaro felt that Reuben was unjust. She had grown very critical of him lately, and a smarting dislike coloured her [Pg 337]judgments. After all, it was he who had driven everybody to whatever it was that had disgraced him. He was to blame for Robert's theft, for Albert's treachery, for Richard's base dependence on the Bardons, for George's death, for Benjamin's disappearance, for Tilly's marriage, for Rose's elopement¡ªit was a heavy load, but Caro put the whole of it on Reuben's shoulders, and added, moreover, the tragedy of her own warped life. He was a tyrant, who sucked his children's blood, and cursed them when they succeeded in breaking free. "Tell my lord," said Calverley, "I will attend him instantly." HoME²Ô¾®¿Õ·¬ºÅѸÀ×Á´½Ó
