I have spent more than a decade developing the calibration techniques we needed to obtain this result.

It's clear that the Milky Way has a structure like those, but it's hard to tell being in it.

We know less about the structure of our own galaxy than we do about many nearby galaxies like Andromeda. We literally can't see the forest for the trees because we are embedded inside our own galaxy, and interstellar dust blocks our view.

With two horses that weren't doing a whole lot before he got them, to win two Breeders' Cup races with them, I think it's one of the standout performances recently.

From a local government standpoint, the cost of services is the principal issue. On a statewide basis, 35-acre tracts generate more costs than revenue.

We have established that the radio telescope we used, the Very Long Baseline Array, can measure distances with unprecedented accuracy--nearly a factor of 100 times better than previously accomplished.
