Lol I got the notification that my package was out for delivery and then the expected date was Wednesday. Husband: so they're just gonna drive around with it for 48 hours? No, dear reader. They are going to lie about delivering it AND keep driving with it

The power has gone out at work many times this summer. We're a place that invested in generators. And I realized today that as annoying as it is to have the emergency light come on and the AC go out, the wifi *is* on the generator. Based

Solar system panel time - panelists Laura Mayorga, Geronimo Villanueva, Shingo Kameda, Cristina Thomas and Kurt Retherford, chaired by Heidi Hammel. First question: why do we need to use space telescopes to look at the solar system? Monitoring of objects is key, e.g. following up flybys.

Like many NASA projects and missions, the NASA Exoplanet Science Institute was asked to submit a closeout budget this week. Hopefully just a drill! But very difficult just the same. 💔 Regardless of what happens, I’m *so proud* of the service we have performed for the community over the years. ✨🪐💾🔭👩🏻🔬

Encouraging my Solar System colleagues to get involved in this conference, so it is not just astrophysicists and exoplaneteers talking to one another abut the field that we actually study!

I’m really only just getting into it but I genuinely love birding as a hobby. The entire goal is to look at the bird. Is there a bird? There is a bird! Look at the bird! If you are very keen you can learn what to call the bird so that you can properly thank it for the joy you feel when you see it. 🪶

Welcome. I have arisen from my social media slumber. I intend to shout into the void and enjoy nature's flora and fauna. Will there be context? No. Once more unto the breach.
