   This paper took forever to publish. All the co-authors are astronomers, so we initially started with astronomy journals, and they didn't like it. Not astronomy-enough, I guess. So we tried a space journal instead. Here's the article from Acta Astronautica: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0094576526004091

   And here's the non-paywalled version on the arXiv: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2512.09643

   You may remember I wrote a bunch about this months ago when we first put it on the arXiv. Now it's peer-reviewed, and officially DONE.
