Unusual Broad Spectrum Research in Astronomy. @ErikaHamden-o2q

[00:00:00]Now, most astronomers are or planetary scientists or what have you are really narrowly focused on certain very small areas because of the incredible breadth of research going on now. You're sort of associating things by wavelength a bit, if you will, but you're doing exoplanet research and you're doing extragalactic research. That's you're you're involved in what most people would see as quite a broad spectrum of studying objects in the universe. Is that very unusual and and do you like that sort of looking at different kinds of objects rather than just one very narrowly focused area? So, I mean, I think it it for me, I like it because I I'm interested more in process than in the object. So, I I want to know how things form, how things come about, and to me that can be applied to a lot of different things. But, there there are people who are like, I just care about this one thing. I just want to work on this one thing, and then that's what they do, and that makes them happy.
