How can we all get along? Using modeling/data from solar physics to help clarify certain systems in Astronomy Using modeling/data from solar physics to help clarify certain systems in Astronomy Under the caveat that compared to some astronomy, solar physics is low energy and not in the correct regime Under the caveat that compared to some astronomy, solar physics is low energy and not in the correct regime Using Astronomy to make Space Physics take a step back to see the whole picture not one plasma instability.. Using Astronomy to make Space Physics take a step back to see the whole picture not one plasma instability.. Realizing that the system has to work as a whole Realizing that the system has to work as a whole
