Don't want to be grumpy talking.

So she woke me up at 530 as I looked at the computer.

Oh, my God.

And then we had some reporters coming over at six, which interviewed me right when I had found out half hour after I'd found out.

And it's a great honor.

And it's just been really fun.

And then, you know, I've been getting a lot of emails from people I've worked with or students I've had in the past congratulating me and exchange those stories and the like.

And it's kind of a very special time.

So to be honest, I'm just so focused on doing this, and especially when you start a company, you better be focused, right?

So I'm doing that.

But one of the fields that I find, this is someone, Ben Mazin at UC Santa Barbara, is looking for exoplanets.

And they're using superconducting detectors that are somewhat similar to what we're doing.

In fact, in the 1990s or so, I helped establish that field with other people and did that for five, six, seven years to do that.

He's doing it in a different way.

And I really like how this instrumentation that we've been working on.

These are quantum devices.

are now able to

do these astronomy detectors and look for these.

And, of course, there's so much going on in astronomy these days with gravitational detectors and exoplanet searches.

And it's just really fascinating to me.
