Astronomy Volunteers Needed!

NASA apparently needs volunteers for an upcoming a forthcoming analysis:

From Private Eye

I’m not sure whether this involves a telescope, or an endoscope, or some other device yet to be erected, but I am always prepared to bend over backwards to help such initiatives. If you are similarly receptive, please apply to NASA. I’m sure they’ll be gratified by your submission.

    These Uranus jokes don’t get more subtle do they, lol.

      I note how the pronunciation has changed in the last few decades… Next week I’m leading a group of schoolchildren round the Herschel museum in Bath, where William Herschel lived when he discovered this planet using his own telescope on the property. Perhaps I should offer a bribe (chocolate is a valued currency) to those children who don’t crack up laughing.
