In the future astronomers will be simply combing through old data from NASA and other sources because the only thing visible from Earth will be Elon's Starlink.
They'll be looking at new data from NASA and other sources because Elon's SpaceX will have made launches cheap enough that we'll have a plethora of new space telescopes.
We discuss the limitations and caveats of this methodology, and after accounting for possible failure modes newly validate 50 Kepler candidates as planets, sanity checking the validations by confirming them with vespa using up to date stellar information. Concerning discrepancies with vespa arise for many other candidates, which typically resolve in favour of our models.
Headline; "Slashdot commenter wrong; scientists not stupid after all". In an unprecedented twist, it turns out a slashdot commenter having read the summary for one whole minute did not successfully contradict years of work and decades of accumulated experience of a team of professional scientists.
