We are assuming this was a planetary scientist traveling to the Lunar and Planetary Science Conference
If you're critical of the US government and you are planning to cross the US border any time soon, today is a good day to review EFF's border search pocket guide: www.eff.org/document/eff...
We reported on this a few days ago, but I want to point out this headline because this is where we are at.
A bill in Arkansas would ban gender affirming HAIRCUTS for transgender youth.
HAIRCUTS.
This is a straight up North Korea state sanctioned hairstyle proposed law for youth.
I've said a few times I don't think Musk is ever going to make it to Mars. It's always been more gut than technical knowledge, but the technical isn't refuting me yet.

New post by me for @skyandtelescope.bsky.social : First spacecraft thermal images of Mercury from BepiColombo MERTIS shown at #LPSC2025 skyandtelescope.org/astronomy-ne...
I know! It was great to meet you too- thanks for showing us around the institute 💯
I did! The Mt St Helens ash sample looked really cool! 😎
I got them while I was there :)

Yeah, they said I can email them photos of my art and an address and they'll do their best to mail them back to me
I had a whole watercolor painting up there too :(
I asked the staff and they said they already "packed and shipped them" apparently
I put out some art supplies this week hoping to pick them up today and they're gone too
Gonna give them 2 stars on yelp
Some of the art I did for the #LPSC2025 art wall!
Lol this one is mine
If I wasn't at LPSC I would offer! Hope you can find someone to help!
What the Keck
“America is deeply unprofitable” it’s a country not a B2B startup you fucking dweeb
**This would end space science as we know it.**
I’d probably be out of a job.
Successful ongoing missions would be turned off.
Future missions would be axed.
Some research centers (NASA & non-NASA) would likely dissolve.
Oh no that's terrifying 😬 I'm glad to hear she's okay!
What would Deimos look like to an astronaut in space around Mars? None of Hera's instruments are equivalent to the naked human eye, but here is the science team's first attempt. The 'saddle' between two peaks of Deimos shows up as a shadow
🚨BREAKING SPACE NEWS🚀
Hera, ESA's planetary defense spacecraft heading to the asteroid Dimorphos (the one DART smashed into), flew by Mars yesterday for a gravity assist and to test its cameras.
It took images of Mars and the moon Deimos up close.
AND THEY ARE AMAZING 🤩
I'm unfortunately guilty of this 😭
Manifesting good energy at #LPSC2025
Oh gosh just noticed the typo in the tag #LPSC2025
Your talk was fantastic!!
Ohh! Consider this an IOU then! :)
