Remember, GNU's not Unix? GNU? Oh, yeah. GNU, Linux, Unix, you guys aren't that old. Okay, never mind. It's the white hair. So here's the thing, before this. He's not nerdy enough. I was working on a satellite called the Supernova Acceleration Probe, and now I'm working on the Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe. No, you're working on Earth related to the probe, not working on the probe.

Did I misuse the word on?

Because essentially what happens is the sun accelerates particles, right? It creates this bubble. That's the solar wind. The solar wind, right? But it's moving fast. It is supersonic, right? The heliosphere.

Oh, it's approximately a vacuum.

Exactly. And what happens is, is that, you know, so it's almost like a boundary where information only travels one way, which is out. That's the heliopause, isn't it? No, the heliopause is what I'm getting to. So just like the example that's given is when you run water.

Where do you find these two comedians? These guys know more science than I do.

That's the only thing I know. We've got to lobotomize them first before we put them in. You know when you run water in a faucet and it makes this and then there's that ring? That's like the heliopause, where it goes from supersonic to subsonic. So our heliopause is doing that in the interstellar medium, but here's the thing.

There was a previous satellite, so the guy who's running his professor out of Princeton named Dave McComas, okay? So I don't know if you remember the Ulysses satellite that went over the pole to the sun.

Went over the poles of the sun, and we got to see that the solar wind around the mid-latitudes, you have the regular wind, 400 kilometers per second. Out of the poles, the high-speed wind, 800 kilometers per second. Didn't know that. So young Dave McComas is the guy who made that famous plot. All right? Okay. So then he had an idea, and the idea is crazy.
