AI Thread Summary
A new dedicated forum for Aerospace and Astronautics Engineering has been established, prompting the relocation of the DIY section to Other Sciences. Programming and Computing has been slightly repositioned, while Member Introductions were moved to General Discussion due to perceived low value on the homepage. Additionally, Art and Music sections have been prioritized on the front page, with Feedback and Announcements shifted to the right. The changes aim to enhance the forum's organization and accessibility for users. Overall, the adjustments reflect a commitment to improving the forum's structure and user experience.

We decided it was about time to open a dedicated Aerospace and Interstellar Engineering forum. To make room we needed to move DIY to Other Sciences. We realize it's not a perfect fit, but it's the best option at the moment. I moved it up as close to Engineering as possible.

Programming and Computing moved down a bit.

We also moved Member Intros into General Discussion as we felt it didn't provide homepage level value and moved Art, Music etc to the front page and then shifted Feedback and Announcements to the right.

I want to thank those members who interacted with me a couple of years ago in two Optics Forum threads. They were @Drakkith, @hutchphd, @Gleb1964, and @KAHR-Alpha. I had something I wanted the scientific community to know and slipped a new idea in against the rules. Thank you also to @berkeman for suggesting paths to meet with academia. Anyway, I finally got a paper on the same matter as discussed in those forum threads, the fat lens model, got it peer-reviewed, and IJRAP...
About 20 years ago, in my mid-30s (and with a BA in economics and a master's in business), I started taking night classes in physics hoping to eventually earn the science degree I'd always wanted but never pursued. I found physics forums and used it to ask questions I was unable to get answered from my textbooks or class lectures. Unfortunately, work and life got in the way and I never got further the freshman courses. Well, here it is 20 years later. I'm in my mid-50s now, and in a...
