Just discovered the Soho Lasco imaging and it is fascinating...

You are just a little late to the party...


Have you checked out this Website?

https://aerospace.org/node/6966


I have now. It is about the deorbiting of an Iridium satellite. What does this have to do with anything else being discussed here?


Both the aerospace and the SOHO Websites concern satellites.

Astronomers are often interested in satellites.

This is an astronomy newsgroup.

aerospace.org is a Website of which YOU were unaware, just as GK had been unaware of features on the SOHO site.

This is GK's thread, so if he wants to inform readers of the existence of interesting Websites, that should be his prerogative.

It is out of line for you to insult him for doing so.

You are the one who went off-topic.
