"The idea that they can somehow obliterate these sources is dead wrong — scientists in general and astronomers in particular are not going to take these threats lying down."

““Vera Rubin offers an excellent example of what can happen when more minds participate in science,” was changed to replace “more” with “many,” altering the meaning from emphasizing the need for diverse perspectives to simply highlighting a high number of people.”

    “…scientists in general and astronomers in particular are not going to take these threats lying down…”

    I’m glad to hear that and look forward to seeing what they plan to do. Realistically, I’m not expecting much.
