I have to say that driving down a road I've never been on in a country I don't live in (on the opposite side that I'm used to) and seeing a photo of yourself on a giant sign on the side of the road is one of the most surreal things that's ever happened to me. Kia Ora, Whangarei! #ProfSamLectureTour

@sundogplanets 😀
Good to see you quoted in the latest New Scientist too, on starlink collision avoidance...
@sundogplanets Okay, now, this is just adorable. Good for you!
@sundogplanets
Relax,
if on road sign don't write any bad words about you,
then it nice to see
By the way,
you have attitude towards to astronomy, right?
@sundogplanets Full list of dates here people... https://www.rasnz.org.nz/rasnz-info/rasnz-lecture-trust-bht-1
@sundogplanets if only I was still in contact with one of my close school friends, I am certain she would have loved to attend. Congratulations Prof.!
@sundogplanets
If you haven't already got a talk booked in Dunedin could you get in touch with our museum director? I'm sure he would love to give a platform for what you have to say about starlink satellites
@sundogplanets check you out, baby *flicks hair on your behalf*
@sundogplanets this is so awesome.
@sundogplanets Plus palm trees.
