Wasn't expecting this.
When I was interviewed, it was done by a Uni student for a project.
Never realised it would be published.

One correction, the SN1997de wasn't part of Brian Schimdts' research.
Though I was part of group which included some other BOSS members and others. Brian would send suspect targets for us to image. I did image some targets but could not detect anything.


I have sent an email to the author to get the article updated.


There were also a number of others interviewed for the project.
Not all of the information was from me.

Thanks Glen
I was just discussing this the other day commenting on the enormous amount of energy that must be wasted every day generating the light that travels outward from our planet into space. It’s a waste phenomenon that is not often discussed in the media.
