Hi Friends! I contributed a bunch of things to the RMSC silent auction this year, please check them out and bid through Saturday! e.givesmart.com/events/DpF/i...

Our biggest sale of the season is on now! Buy one, get one half off all made to order products, now through Sunday! shop.startorialist.com/collections/...

Things are awful but this little shop is a nice glimmer of hope for a few of us, and I am hoping we can expand that to more people 💖

Eight years ago #Cassini said good-bye through the cloud tops of Saturn 🪐 We restocked adorkable earrings from Pretty Little Earth to celebrate this iconic mission! shop.startorialist.com/products/mis...

I SUBMITTED A FULBRIGHT!!!

The Vera C. Rubin Observatory has opened a new window to the universe — and Graduate Center scientists @saavikford.bsky.social and @emilylrice.me are among the first to peer through it www.gc.cuny.edu/news/2000-as... @cunygcastro.bsky.social @joshuatan.bsky.social

My TV appearance for today’s Crew-11 launch was canceled (boo), but I’ll still be watching and especially cheering on Zena Cardman, who was a geoscience grad student when she was selected as an astronaut in 2017! plus.nasa.gov/scheduled-vi...

This is true for early career astronomers too - participating in a review panel, getting to read a variety of proposals and really understand what makes a good proposal and what misses - is an incredibly valuable use of time.

We are heading to the BEACH! ✨ 🏖️ ✨ Join us Thursday, July 10 at Whitechapel Projects in Long Branch, NJ for the first-event “AoT On the Shore” event with presenters from @cuny.edu, Rutgers, & Princeton. RSVP: www.eventbrite.com/e/astronomy-...

We're stoked to be listed in @washingtonpost.com's Going Out Guide: wapo.st/4009AYI There's still some tickets left for tomorrow's AoTDC @dc9club.bsky.social: dice.fm/event/bbd36v... Join us to hear about the prospects for the future of space science and what you can do about it!

Comin’ in hot, from Kansas! 💌🏳️‍🌈 These will be great gifts for friends, family, & I 😜 #PrideMonth

Our goal for June is still send Space Pride designs to all 50 states! Here is where we have shipped orders so far. Please repost & tag a friend from a state we still need to fill in! shop.startorialist.com/collections/...

Today was a fun day! I got to speak at & help judge some science fair projects at the Bronx STEM Expo at Yankee Stadium, and I admit when someone asks if I am willing to be on camera I always say yes 🤩

Hello, #AAS246! We do not have a #BOOTHtique, but @briles34.bsky.social is there with a discount code & stickers to share, plus some samples from our Space Pride collection! Find her or look for our cards at the message center!

And @emilylrice.me wrote a blog post with the story behind the design! It’s been a busy day here at STARtorialist HQ! 😅 shop.startorialist.com/blogs/news/t...

We just added a “full image” version of the small flag to the shop by request! This one has no black border or slogan and shows more of the original design shop.startorialist.com/collections/...

We have been adding to our Space Pride collection since March! Everything is available here, and a blog post with all the credit for this design is coming soon: shop.startorialist.com/collections/...

It is, actually!! @startorialist.com jumped through all the legal hoops and designed some really cool stuff with it, including a full-sized flag! 🌈 shop.startorialist.com/collections/...

Hello from NEAF! We’ll be at Rockland Community College spreading the message that Space is for Everyone💖

We’ve extended the sale through today! 💖

We are honored to launch the SPACE PRIDE collection featuring NASA’s Progress Pride Flag design (w/ permission from contributors, no profit to NASA) shop.startorialist.com/collections/... We will be donating some of the sales proceeds to the Trevor Project & Choir Collaboration’s mutual aid fund

I have a brilliant idea to save Sesame Street: make all those parody musicals real. I would pay so much money to see Scramilton!

We're already more than 1/12th of the way through 2025, it's time to lock in 😮‍💨 If you're planning to vote in the primaries this June, make sure your party affiliation is up to date by the February 14 deadline. Check it out ⬇️ www.nycvotes.org

Of interest. FYI Vera Rubin gave an extensive oral history interview to the AIP - you can read her own words here www.aip.org/history-prog...

If you're looking for a concrete action to take today--and you're a Visa cardholder--take 2 min and send an email to them today. 👇

Can we all agree to use those NSF flagged words as much as possible, even in non-DEI contexts? Flood the phone lines if you will. Get creative, scientists!

Taking over a federal agency should be AT LEAST as hard as getting a travel reimbursement on tax levee funds!!!!!

SCIENCE IS CREATIVE (this is a great thread)

For once I am glad not to have federal funding I guess? @startorialist.com and @astronomyontap.bsky.social will continue to be very loud and very diverse, equitable, and inclusive!

Hello Bloomington! Our first AoT event of the year will be from 6 to 7:30 pm on Feb 26, 2025 at our favorite bar Orbit Room! And our very own IU professor and Chair Prof. Caty Pilachowski @cpilacho.bsky.social will be one of the speakers! Let's have a good turnout and make this event successful!

I just backed this Kickstarter to get a bunch of rainbow logo pins! 🌈 🚀 🌟 www.kickstarter.com/projects/spa... Via @jtuttlekeane.bsky.social

TFW you: 1️⃣ buy @astrokatie.com’s book 2️⃣ from AMNH 3️⃣ to lend to a student! 🎉 (After making five phone calls to my senators and representative in Congress 😡)

Gorgeous crescent Moon and Venus in the southwest sky tonight… #LookUp #AstronomerPSA

I can't express enough how wonderful Jonathan is, nor what an incredible resource his unpaid work has been for pretty much everyone I know who reports on space. This is worth your donation!!

Well, big news. I am planning to move the Space Library to a new home. And I need some help - in 35 years I've never asked for funding, donations or subscriptions for my Space Report, to keep it independent, but now I need to raise some additional funds. www.gofundme.com/f/fund-jonat...

I might be on TV? Or it might get scrubbed, either way, this is worth it!

Folks, if you still have energy and want to direct it somewhere, my incredible officemate, @marcyharbut.bsky.social, lost her house in the #LAFires. Her brother set up a gofundme to help them start over. She's THE BEST - so please help if you can. www.gofundme.com/f/support-ma...

We are ready for you, #AAS245! Visit us at booth 726 (far back right of the hall) starting at the opening reception tonight and during exhibit hours until Thursday at 2:30 pm.

And now a personal request. My kids go to an all-girls Los Angeles public school focused on STEM. It's a Title I school: more than half of students qualify for free lunches. Multiple families have lost homes. Please donate if you can. friends-of-gala.square.site/product/gala...

My friends (and amazing planetary scientists / geologists) Elena & Topher Amador-French lost their home last night in the Eaton Fire. They had to flee with minutes warning. If you’re able, please donate to them and their family. Venmo: Elena-Amador.
