Absolutely.

Dylan from NAU in Flagstaff and Alejandro Reynoso from Monterey.

have both asked about what we can actually learn from the oscillation of stars.

Dylan says, can we predict its age and or understand the core?

And also, do all stars oscillate or just dying stars, supermassive stars, main sequence stars?

And then Alejandro says, what have you learned from analyzing star quakes that you couldn't learn with other methods?

So basically, they're both asking, what specifically is it that we can learn from these quakes?

Yeah, I stand by it.

I'm on team star on this one.

I'm assuming at the Flatiron Institute that just the coffee station there has angular momentum implements.

Do you want a metal angular momentum implement or one of the wooden straight ones?

That was about to be the opposite of what I would have guessed, because I was wondering whether the stirring effect would have sped up the fusion reaction by kind of...

You can increase the speed of a chemical reaction.

I know that's different from a nuclear reaction by stirring the chemicals together or by increasing the energy in there.

But you're saying it's the opposite because it's bringing more fuel in from the outside.

Yeah, that's right.

Oh, thanks.

It's one of the nicest things anyone's ever said to me.

So we've got more questions, Matt.

We do.
