Footnotes

1. The group operates their research station on the Sphinx Observatory at the Jungfraujoch, as seen in the banner of this page on a 2008 holiday picture.

2. The recording took place in January 2020, before the Covid crisis started to unfold. In hindsight this makes my answer “I have no idea about the next crisis” a bit silly… On the other hand, it does illustrate why predicting crises is so complicated!
