Congratulations Mozzie,
It's a beautiful sketch and well deserved, and what a rewarding experience that must be!
Now your family have got no excuse to call you in at night- you can tell them you are on the road to fame and need to make your next big contribution. I can hear it now.. Mozzie to family: "Please serve breakfast to a hungry and tired astronomer at 5am pls, solar observing now calls. Just make sure they don't throw at you.:P They would to me. :rolleyes:
