The first day of summer! This is a smaller than average issue but one that is still packed full of useful insights and important announcements. Take a look at the "Briefly Noted" section for some time sensitive summer school information. Visit the Atacama desert with Chris Wilson in her update on Alma or ponder the continuing threats to Radio Astronomy with Ken Tapping's feature article. Wishing you a safe and productive summer!
