To understand the phenomena we need light. And we need to see how light interacts with it or what light emanates from it. But most of our universe is darkness, so it's, there could be a lot of interesting stuff. We may be able to soon detect neutrino messages as even been hypothesized as a way of communicating between civilizations and just do neutrino telescopes to study the universe. I'm kind of so fascinated by that. The idea that we could map out the rich architecture of the outer solar system just by doing something that we could have done potentially for a long time. It's almost like passive radar. You have these pimprics of light. Imagine that you
