Maybe I missed it with all the recent conversations around interferometers, but how does time dilation/relativity play into setting up a very wide interferomter array? I've heard people discuss L4/L5 setups, but what about a solar system wide array? What about a galaxy size array? How big does it get before it's just no longer possible? Does it matter if we're discussing radio vs. visible light?
Astronauts should be discouraged from throwing tools from the ISS, it's not a pram.
