@vrubinobs.bsky.social is a runner-up in @science.org Breakthrough of the Year. Plus an excellent main breakthrough in the irresistable rise of renewable energy. 🔭🧪

Qianjiadong Reservoir in southern Hunan, China, produces a double harvest: solar energy and yellow carp. The solar farm produces up to 80 megawatts of power while the fish forage beneath the panels. With a massive scale-up of solar and wind at home and cheap exports of the technology, China is driving a worldwide surge of renewable energy—Science’s 2025 Breakthrough of the Year.

Science has named the seemingly unstoppable growth of renewable energy worldwide as the 2025 Breakthrough of the Year.

I suspect that they would argue that if you're building the world's best telescope you should put it on the world's best site to get the most out of it. Putting it at a lower altitude instantly reduces its capability, to a certain degree. But, as you say, they just need to get it built now.
