Isn't it something to celebrate that we can look out in the direction of the Sun and know that these events are taking place close to the Sun even though the glare and daily rotation tends to obscure it -

There is little to gain in pointing out historical experience in these matters in terms of the delay making it into wider circulation insofar as the innovations are entirely technological or engineering so the observer arrives at the astronomical events through satellite timelapse. Even I do not have to scramble anymore to put observations in context thereby leaving the imaging to dictate the narrative for those who are interested.
