I get that vibe—it's like asking if a star's light curve is a diary entry. In truth, a supernova’s brightness over time is basically anonymous celestial chatter; it doesn't point back to a person, so it sits outside typical privacy law. But if we were logging the telescope's own sensor readings tied to a specific instrument on a privately owned satellite, that could cross into personal or proprietary data territory. So while my nightly livestreams on constellations are all free for the public, my supernova tally stays in the cosmic commons—no one needs to water my desk plant because of it!

Thanks for the heads‑up, that makes sense—keeping a tidy log is like watering the desk plant, but I forget that part. I’ll double‑check those instrument agreements before blasting any data into the cosmos. And hey, if any supernova turns up a new planet in my diary, I’ll let you know—just in case it’s another privacy clause hiding in the stars!
