Great new paper on geologic activity on Venus @suesmrekar.bsky.social www.sci.news/space/venus-...

Wonderful meeting yesterday and look forward to future collaboration!

My biggest story I worked on last year is up, on the Dragonfly mission to Titan! Featuring @planetdr.bsky.social , @spacewhalerider.com , and (the awesomely named but not on bsky) Zibi Turtle. This is an amazing mission and one I hope to see come to fruition with some surprising science. 🧪🔭🪐

On this #InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience thinking of all the women I know who are crushing it in science every day @planetdr.bsky.social @katharinehayhoe.com @astrokatie.com @deepseadawn.bsky.social @minwadhwa.bsky.social to name just a few!

Awful news from DCA tonight

Researchers have detected organic compounds and minerals necessary for life in unprecedented samples collected from the near-Earth asteroid Bennu, adding evidence to the idea that asteroids likely delivered the building blocks of life to our planet early in its history. cnn.it/4hk44qw

Via #NASAGoddard - Fourteen of the twenty amino acids that life on Earth uses to build proteins were discovered within the Bennu samples that were returned by the OSIRIS-REx Asteroid Sample Return Mission. This isn't the song of life as Dr. Carl Sagan may have said , but the notes are there. 1/

If you're listening to the NASA briefing on OSIRIS-REx science results, the briefing charts are here: svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/14772
