Meg's initials are M.E.G.
Thoughtful and humble. A role model for any up-and-coming scientist.
12:02 "grant you, immediately, the sum of" - this is pure class. Is always the little things that pushes us forward in life. Thank you for sharing this!
More videos like this please! It is so inspirational for current PhD students to see
Wish you made videos more frequently, because they are always excellent.. Go prof Gray!
As always, terrific and insightful content. I was touched, as I think Dr Gray is, by her appreciation of the support from the instrument makers guild. Sometimes little things, small encouragements, can make a huge difference to someone.
This was sooooo insightful and inspirational! Great work. Would love to see more of these brilliant origin stories!
This is a great video on two levels. First it sheds light on how science works behind the scenes (always interesting), and secondly it inspires and shows the way for future scientists. Thank you for sharing Professor Gray.
Oh, I absolutely loved seeing the raw research data folder! Thank you saving that and sharing it with all of us.
Meghan's videos are always great! Thank you (and Brady) for all your efforts!!!
I love that it's modeled as a spherical cluster in a vacuum.
Professor Gray is always pleasing to watch.
1:22 Apparently one of the benefits of being a PhD student at Cambridge University is they issue a Cat Box attachment for your desk.
I love the content!
This channel is one of my favorites.
LOVE IT GUYS!
KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!
It’s just such a pleasure to come back to this channel every once in a while and see how you all are getting on. I was so addicted to this channel when I was a student back in 09-11.
This video is one of the best that I've seen on "Sixty Symbols"; not because of the expertise, but because of the tenacity showed by the "Star".
Heartwarming video!! Thanks for sharing!❤️
wait?wat? how do u share a video?
I'm Canadian doing my PhD (in carbon capture) in Scotland so it was cool to hear about another person with a similar story (and a happy story at that :))
This is so inspiring! More of these with the profs please!
I love the expression "first light"
Gray-te video! I loved seeing Dr. Gray's file on the paper, especially the FORTRAN code.
I thought that might be Fortran, but I only ever had an aged Fortran 1966 textbook... that later version "has a whiff" of Pascal about it... what with procedure calls and not a line number in sight, etc.
@@edgeeffect The 'C' in column 1 leads me to think FORTRAN rather than Pascal.
This is an amazing glimpse into life as a young PhD student. It sounds exciting and terrifying. Thanks, Dr. Gray!
The uncertainty of getting results within the 4 year PhD course and the need for multiple lines of research was particularly evident in my chemistry PhD to the extent that in immense frustration at the lack of results I would fire a plastic crossbow dart at the periodic table to decide which element to look at next..!
But it did feel very good when the results started to come... by the third year! #LongSentence
Yes doing science means dealing or coping with great uncertainties and not losing the faith one needs to preserve and not give up!!
Lovely trip down memory lane with Professor Gray.
Wow. That is an inspiring story. The doubt. The anxiety. The success! The work!
I really want to do ground based infrared observations one day. Uncooled microbolometers for the 8-12μm range.
That was such a lovely and inspiring interview !
It was really interesting to hear about what professor Grey's first year as a phd student what like. Of course the experiment did not work the first time around! I am glad it did eventually! Thank you for sharing the feeling of being a pioneer, doubts and all
Outstanding to hear reminiscences and words of wisdom from Dr. Gray.
It's wonderiful to see the beginning of a project, a paper, to see the guts of it, so to speak. It's also fascinating to see the older ways of keeping data. It really gives one a sense of things. I'd have been terrified, personally, of losing those tapes, or of something happening to them, if I had something like that with me while doing such an extensive project!
What a lovely video and story! Thank you for sharing!
Fabulous interview!
Nice interesting talk, nice to catch up with you again. All the best Meghan and Sixty Symbols team for 2023 !
Such a fascinating video! I love the behind the scenes stuff in astronomy
Fantastic video thoroughly enjoyed it!
Since this is a video of your first paper, had to go back and watch the video you first appeared in on this channel. Can’t believe it’s been 13yrs! Let’s keep it goin even longer :D
The video was very interesting for me to see the accomplishments through the years of a young bright-eyed astronomer who later became a professor at a major university.
Always enjoyable, but more so when we get to hear a bit of the personal origin story.
This video is absolutely brilliant. Such insight, so much advice for younger students.
Great video! I really enjoyed it. It was great to see all the stumbling around that goes on behind the scenes of scientific advances. More of these "First Paper" videos please
So exciting! I'm so jealous. Do you think a 34 y/o chef could switch professions and dive into academic astronomy/cosmology?
Of course
Probably not. There's a lot of maths.
@@Mercury-Wells anyone can do maths if they put the effort in.
Why not make a list of the pros and cons weigh the options and follow your dream in reality or vicariously
@@MK-13337some people just can’t, some people have trouble learning some thing no matter what
Professor , I admire your deep knowledge and your hard work as well.
By the way you look so great with this beautiful natural colour of hair.
Qué historia más deliciosa. Me ha encantado la gratitud de esas 200 libras. Esta mujer me tiene fascinado por la musicalidad de su voz. Disfruto enormemente sus videos y sus charlas.
Saludos!
Should have checked with the Lieutenant Colonel at Apothecaries' Hall right away IMHO, pretty obvious!
I have a bit of a 'proprietary' feeling towards a celestial object, too. Though I didn't make it as an astronomer, my name is still on two papers. I dug up and crunched some numbers for observations of a binary star in the Hyades, that my advisor used to tweak the distance modulus to that cluster. Funny, though the system should be readily visible in binoculars, I don't think I've ever went to look for it.....
Great video Brady! Was wonderful hearing about Dr Gray's first paper.....this reminds me a lot of your Numberphile2 podcast/channel where you share the backstories of the Mathematicians that appear on Numberphile....maybe u could have a similar podcast for the astronomers/astrophysicists that appear on SixtySymbols 😉
Very inspiring. Thanks so much for sharing
Congratulations madam
now you have to make a video with the people that made CIRSI
Thank you.
What a lovely story
I was just thinking of Professor Gray the other day. I hope her beautiful christmas cactus is ok. It was not where I expected to see it.
I wonder, if CIRSI was build these days, what if any would be the results benefits?
And any thing that JWST can do?
🇨🇦
OMG Groningen represent!
Research is truly a family story in the end.
I got a bit emotional at one point. Lovely story, and I've even viewed that telescope, through a telescope, from the observatory on neighboring Tenerife.
Me too. It 's the picture of the proud young researcher together with proud mom and dad.
@@Bayerwaldler Interesting... For me it was the spontaneous generation of a cheque, providing financial support, simply because someone demonstrated competence, passion and asked nicely :)
1:22 Do all desks in the UK come with cats in their top left drawer?
Nice
very cool
Science is made by people; not by budget numbers.
@9:20 is that Fortran code?
Nice, a2ps printouts :)
Was this instrument used (or followup versions) for other discoveries after this initial paper or was this a one-off?
👍
Forgot to show a spherical cow ...

:)
I thought names were alphabetical.
Noice
Omg she's smiling
The only thing this proves is that these klowns are paid too much and given too little to do.
