Confirmation the "Force is with us always"

Thank you for bringing attention to the horn antenna. I live 10 minutes away and had no idea this was happening. It’s gotten zero attention locally. Please sign that petition. 🙏 The last thing we need is to lose such a significant historical instrument, especially not for more condos. It’s already unbelievably overdeveloped and absurdly expensive to live here.

Who thinks Anton is a wonderful person? ❤

[William_Borgeson]

I visited the horn as a child back in JHS, and we were amazed that something so primitive looking helped us learn so much, that petition is signed and shared, thanks Anton I had no idea they wanted to take it down.

Gravitational waves as they move right thru you: "hello wonderful person" 👋

[feeberizer]

The buoy analogy is perfect. Thank you for making this complex subject more understandable.

I’m a dual US citizen living in Canada and I’ve signed the Horn antenna petition. Thank you Anton for using your platform to draw attention to such a critical issue.

Your integrity and compassion is evident in every aspect of your channel and I really appreciate all the amazing efforts you’ve made, both to educate and advocate.

I signed the petition to save the horn antenna. Thanks for the news Anton, you wonderful person!

[yvonnemiezis]

This enthusiasm is greatly appreciated😊

Signed “Save the Horn”. Thanks Anton for bringing this to our attention.

I love this kind of progress of technology... from using a telescope, to using the entire earth as a telescope, to using distant pulsars as a detector... it is literally reaching out into the universe to make our eyes and minds larger.

Exciting times. Seems like every day something amazing is understood or closer to it. Thanks for keeping up to speed Anton. 👍👍😉

Hello, wonderful Anton!

We live in exciting times. Sure, everyone wants to live in Star Trek times, but consider when I was a kid in the 80s, all we knew was that there were 9 planets around our star and we assumed there HAD to be others out there. That was the extent of what we knew. Now, we're looking back in time to close to the origin of the universe with James Webb, and have not only confirmed but are learning all kinds of things about gravitational waves which we weren't even close to 30-40 years ago.

While some might prefer to have lived earlier to be on the ground floor of discoveries with Galileo or Kepler, and others wish for a time when we already have interstellar travel, this is still a pretty exciting time to be alive. There will probably be a landing on Mars within the lifetime of people already born today, and we have so many confirmed planets around the galaxy to think about and try to see as wee also look deeper back in time.

Great video, as always, Anton!

We won't have to wait long! The announcement is set for tomorrow June 29th! Can't wait

I live in a town next to Holmdel and used to work at Bell labs. I've seen a few signs in Holmdel but paid litte attention. Thanks for bringing that up.
