TheSkySearchers

I really enjoyed that; explaining how you learn about a hard to study planet by looking at a not planet/not star using actual stars to correct the data. It gives a picture of the ingenuity common in the scientific enterprise that I feel gets lost in articles that focus on computer simulations, big data, or the latest uber technology telescope.

The idea of clouds of vaporized carborundum also tickled me.

Glad you enjoyed it. I too thought it was unusually interesting and fun.
