So excited to find this list this morning! If you're looking for book recommendations where women have amazing plot lines, here are several lists for you! Some of them I've already read and loved! Looking forward to adding the others to my TBR lists! ✨ Happy reading! 📚
Searching for fiction with tough women protagonists? I just published this essay, and it has a reading list. https://t.co/QPUrhoLwPc

Never in a million years did I think I'd be standing in a room full of people doing the impossible. I have found my place and I can't wait to spend the rest of my career showcasing how amazing space and science truly is! 🚀✨ #MissionToPsyche #NASA #BlastOff

How cool is this!? @NASA's and @MissionToPsyche's logo are showcased on the Falcon Heavy! 🥹 🚀☄️✨
NASA’s Psyche spacecraft is encapsulated in Falcon Heavy’s fairing and vertical at LC-39A ahead of its launch, weather pending, as soon as tomorrow at 10:16 a.m. ET. The mission will explore a metal-rich asteroid between Mars and Jupiter.

Hey @ASU space loving students! There's a really cool class that still has seats: SES 494: Space Business & Entrepreneurs! I took it last fall & it was a great window into the space industry! Taught by @Jim_Bell & @hardgrove, both accomplished scientists! Tell them I sent you! 😉

One of my more lighthearted and quick projects for @NASAGoddard was to create a poster for their annual film festival! Happy to say I was able to get a snap with it before the showing started today! My favorite part of this is the little astronaut holding up the flower. 🎨🌌

Reppin' the Barbie color palette at NASA today. Also, only 3 1/2 weeks left. Home stretch! 🥹 Ready to stuff my face with an In N Out burger, but not ready to leave to all the amazing people I've met and projects I get to work on! 😭 #NASAIntern #scicomm 🎨🌌🍔🍟

The @owensfellowship is created by incredible people. The summit was full of laughs, tears and new connections. I got to paint in the rain! Two of my favorite things ✨ And then @TheSpaceGal took my painting home with her 💖🥹 ✨Favorite picture from the summit✨

My highlight of the @owensfellowship has been talking about career goals with @TheSpaceGal. She is a national treasure as far as I'm concerned. An inspiration in an industry full of intimidation. Science communication is in great hands and I can't wait to contribute ✨💖

Here it is! @NASAWebb's 1 year anniversary image revealed, and it is a beautiful work of data! Rho Ophiuchi. 390 light years away, it's the closest star forming region to Earth! Filled with gas and dust, this cloud is home to 50 stars, some with evidence of protoplanetary disks!
Cheers to our first year! 🥂 Let’s celebrate one year of Webb science by taking a brand-new look at Sun-like stars being born, in this detailed close-up of Rho Ophiuchi, the closest-star-forming region to Earth. https://t.co/jXJgjb4mFj

Helped the NASA Hubble team this weekend with their outreach booth at @ShoreLeaveCon! Was able to meet @RobertPicardo from Star Trek Voyager! He was such an inspiration for me growing up! He now dedicates time as a board member for @exploreplanets, so he's still an inspiration!🚀

A stunning new image dropped from @NASAWebb this week! Giving off so many vibes! Possibly a favorite of of mine in the planetary series of Webb photos. 🪐
Today is Satur(n)day! 🪐 @NASAWebb saw the planet on June 25, part of science in progress. Saturn appears dark because methane gas in its atmosphere absorbs almost all the sunlight in near-infrared. However, the icy rings shine brightly. https://t.co/fogbvTOTty
