Thanks Justin, Rob and Ric.
Yes, its been quite an exciting ride for the last day and a half. This is, of course, always the case whenever the BOSS team makes and submits a discovery, but it's been heightened for me this time because this is my first discovery contribution.
Normally when Stu or Pete have made discoveries, I am doing the confirmation images, analysis, and/or reporting, so it's good the have the shoe on the other foot for a change!!
As I said at the BOSS presentation at the Australian Imaging Conference in June this year, with all the technology that's available to us these days, it's a great time to be an amateur in this field. There are so many resources, information, communications, and support available for doing this and contributing back to the science. Very satisfying indeed.
