It's Migratory patterns of Western Meadowlarks (via eBird) but it reprents a new way to get data. Passionaite human volunteers who have nothing else to do! Universal income will make many more of these volunteers.

Sooner than you think, self-replicating probes will expand this nervous system into the infinite expanse, and in our simulations, many iterations of ourselves will know much about the universe, but why.

I wonder if the planetary nervous system stores its data in the interplanetary file system.
