Reply to comment by ilikedmatrixiv in Royal Astronomical Society announces all journals to publish as open access from 2024 by magenta_placenta

Astronomer here! You are referring to the Astrophysics Data System (ADS). It has been around since the 1990s, and yeah, astronomy basically has been completely open access since back then. We are a very unusual field in that regard, and it is darn useful for things like finding good citations for your papers- it must be so hard in other fields that don't have a tool this nice.
