Well, it's in the public domain now - UKIRT's future


Latest news can be seen here -SFGate news about UKIRT. I'm sure other media sources will pick things up over the next day or so. Local rags picked it up quickly but aren't the places I want to direct people to. Don't know anything about SFGate, but haven't hit a paywall there yet.

Hi Tom... SFGate is the San Francisco Chronicle. Some of their stuff is paywalled, some isn't.

Thanks for that, Kevin. At the time of writing only the local rags had the news and know they have paywalls, but didn't encounter one at SFGate. Haven't tried the link again.

The news is not appearing in many places it seems, but part of that might be due to the fact the astronomy community knew exactly what was going on several months ago, it's just we weren't allowed to say anything. Until now of course. Even now I still feel I'm walking on broken glass...
