The more I see this little piece from Roy Jacobsen’s Dispatches From Outland blog, the more it delights me. (The blog is no more.)
Gaspard, B.F. (2009). On the synchronicity of the discharge of ionized sulfur particles from Io’s polar regions and Ms. Astrid Lingonströtter commuting patterns. Journal of Applied Planetary Research and Ironmongery, 257(1), 77-193.
SO! That’s the secret? I’ll get you a telescope!
I’m so dense I didn’t understand the joke with your excerpt alone. That’s good stuff. Gaspard should seize the day with Lingonstrotter. Experiment by taking action and seeing if the moons respond.
