Description: | Being the International Director of the Square Km Array(SKA) project is not always easy. To be sure, the job involves a lot of Glory, Adulation and First Class travel, but it can also be quite stressful at times to keep the international astronomical opinion leaders focussed and out of trouble. One can only speculate on the nature of the crisis that produced this recent image. Maybe it was an irresponsible claim by one of the SKA pathfinders about having prematurely detected the EoR. Or perhaps it was about the size of his new office in Manchester. We will never know. But we may be certain that, whatever it was, it was handled smoothly and serenely. |
