Hi all! I'm still in a newsletter subscription push mode -- with the demise of the bird app, it's gotten really hard to get the word out about projects like this that don't have an internal algorithm to help people find it.

If you like #space, #science, #stem, or just want to support a woman of color doing STEM stuff -- please subscribe! Ad Astra is a weekly newsletter that tells you what's going on in space science and spaceflight.

NASA found something weird at the edge of the solar system.

Let’s talk about what New Horizons found in the Kuiper Belt, and why we know so little about this part of our solar system:

I'm talking to a journalist in a bit about NASA's new "space sustainability strategy" and this one sentence from the abstract seems to sum it up:

"Given the substantial upfront expenditures required to develop and deploy remediation capabilities and the potential delay in receiving benefits, these motivations do not appear to be sufficient to incentivize immediate action"

I'm going to have to read this more carefully, but did NASA just say they don't care about orbit?!

Wondering what those pinkish red loops were during the total eclipse?? I have a video for you:

Que alguien me explique. ¿Por qué no debemos ver directamente el eclipse si yo veo que está todo oscuro?. ¿Lo oscuro daña la vista? o ¿cómo está este rollo?

In San Antonio, waiting for the eclipse and the cloud cover is pretty terrible. How is it wherever you are??

Normal day as a space reporter, just watching a video of a spacecraft flying through our sun and looking out at the Milky Way 🤯

A daring mission to revive a defunct NASA telescope? Let's talk about Spitzer Resurrector and speculate on why the Space Force (and not NASA!) is interested in this mission.
