I'm in college, working my way up for a degree in Astronomy.
Meant to ask you: what are you planning to specialise in, within astronomy?
So far it looks like either radio or observational astronomy. Each one has its pros and cons, but at least with radio astronomy you can have a normal sleep schedule since it can be done during the day. Also, stars tend to be a lot more interesting in wavelengths other than the visible light spectrum.
Math people and their expressions of power.
Personally I prefer Up Arrow notation, since you can express trillions upon trillions of power towers quite easily.
If this website ever becomes badass enough, it should be renamed Intensity /|\ /|\ 3
It might still be no match for Parts and his powder-puff-pink expression of power.
I beg to differ. Up-Arrow notation has way more power than the color pink or using bigger font sizes. With it I can measure powers so large that there won't be enough space in the universe to actually write out all the digits.
All it takes is adding another arrow, or just simply using a higher value for the right hand side.
