Book contract signed with Princeton University Press. It's official!
Now I just have to finish writing a whole book from all my rants about satellite pollution in the next few months! No big deal...

@sundogplanets Congratulations, that is a real milestone. Turning rants into chapters is its own strange skill, the arguments you have already made a hundred times usually need the most scaffolding once they have to stand alone on the page. Looking forward to reading it.
Congratulations!!!
@sundogplanets I sense the C, F, K & U keys may wear out on the keyboard, best get a spare 🙂
And congratulations 🥳
I think on one of the images of the last coolMoon sessions down here in Uruguay at @tierranietos I have a spaceSlop debre image. Nothing spectaular but if you need one from every country ..
@sundogplanets Congrats and best of speed and focus to you in your writing!

@sundogplanets Woot! Congratz, Professor.
@sundogplanets 🥳 🎉 🐐
Are you thinking of including the sweary bits or will those get edited out before publication?
@sundogplanets Congratulations on your book contract with Princeton University Press. That is a beautiful achievement.
Here in Gaza, we face another kind of pollution. Sometimes we have to burn plastic just to make tea or cook food when there is no fuel. The smoke fills our lungs, but we have no other choice. Life has become very difficult, yet we continue to hold on to hope and dream of a better future.
@sundogplanets
Well, 90% of your work is already done!! Just a nip here, a tuck there, and we're PUBLISHING, baby!!
😄
@sundogplanets Congratulation!!!
Looking forward to the book. No pressure. Take it slow.
Step one: print out all your Fediverse posts on that topic :-)
It has already been added to my to-read list.
@sundogplanets I can’t wait to read it! Congrats! 🎉
Many congratulations! You and your rants make a difference, and this will get you to an even larger (but no more loving!) audience.
Way to go!
@sundogplanets congrats. Doing much necessary work - it is appreciated!
@sundogplanets I wish I had the opportunity to look at it.
Gratulerer!
PUP has a two book mathematics encyclopedia that is one of the best references I have in my library. They are still top notch in academic books.
@sundogplanets if you run short on space rants, goat filler. Brings up the vibe
@sundogplanets I'm sure the goats and such will help
@sundogplanets congratulations!
@sundogplanets Fantastic news, congrats!
Perhaps you can use your posts here in the book? Chuck Wendig did that with some of his Twitter posts for You Can Do Anything Magic Skeleton.

@sundogplanets Wow, I’m looking forward to it! I’m glad there’s been so much interest!
@sundogplanets idea: the book contains the same number of letters as the proposed number of satellites.
@sundogplanets Woohoo!!!! Congratulations.
@sundogplanets
Congratulations 🎉
@sundogplanets Congratulations!!
