NASA Discovers Distant Planet With Conditions That Could Sustain Rocks

pov submitting an LPSC abstract this year

If you live in the Phoenix area, come hear me talk at Four Peaks tomorrow!!!

Did we find life on Mars??? Well, no, but we did find maybe the best potential evidence yet. Let’s break it down 🧪🔭

Much like a toddler on a hike, the Perseverance rover has been collecting samples of interesting rocks it finds around the Martian desert. (1/n)

Astronomy on Tap is back in the Valley of the Sun! Join us at Four Peaks Brewing Company in Tempe, AZ on Tuesday, September 9th to commemorate 30 years since the discovery of the first exoplanet orbiting a sun-like star. (1/3)

Highlights from our first #astronomyontap Valley of the Sun event! Spent the night listening to great talks by Dr. Phil Christensen and Dr. Steve Ruff, playing some trivia, and learning a lot about Mars. Even got to hold some Mars rocks courtesy of ASU’s Buseck Center for Meteorite Studies!

Tonight!!! Even if you can’t make it in person, stay tuned here for a recap of our Mars-themed inaugural event 🎉

join us for MSL’s landiversary <3

Scientists behind threatened NASA missions explain what’s at stake Here is what they have to say, in their own words.

Read this.

And then call your Senator and tell them to save NASA science.

Whatever you might hear from fascist billionaires, Mars is extremely dry, extremely cold—and extremely inhospitable.

For the energy, effort, and expense it takes to make Mars habitable for humans we could ensure that Earth is protected, cherished, and able to care for countless generations to come.

This is a photo of a moonlit night.

A simple digital sketch of Pluto. In this little sketch, Pluto is done very simple gray lind work. The view is centered on Sputnik Planitia, and you can see some of the latitudinal bands of different terrain circling the globe. However, I’ve colored Pluto with the colors of the trans Pride flag, starting with dark pink up at the top on the pole, light pink at the mid latitudes, a white cream color for the heart, and light blue for the icy glaciers, and dark blue for the equator and southern hemisphere. A little white sketch of new horizons is also shown over to the top right. It is on a dark gray background. I did the sketch in procreate on the iPad.

The Martian sky.

This image shows the planetary system HR 8799. The background is black. At the center there is a symbol representing a star labeled HR 8799. The star’s light is blocked. There are four exoplanets, which look like fuzzy dots, pictured surrounding the star. Furthest from the star is a fuzzy, faint blue dot, labeled b, at the 10 o’clock position. At the 1 o’clock position, second furthest from the star is a blueish-white fuzzy dot labeled c. Just below that is an orange dot labeled e. At the 4 o’clock position, still near the star, is another fuzzy white dot labeled d.

The James Webb Space Telescope imaged young, giant exoplanets and detected carbon dioxide! The findings suggest that the giant exoplanets in the HR 8799 system likely formed like Jupiter and Saturn. (1/5) 🔭 🧪 🧵

my amongus 😭 (and grand canyon water color)

i love the curioooosity roverrrrrrr

not safe from neutrons >:)

how many nasa scientists does it take to get zoom working 😭 #lpsc

put hidden rovers in my LPSC poster teehee!

Here’s Mars disappearing behind the Moon in Dec ‘22. iPhone capture with Questar Seven telescope. #astrophotography #astronomy #photography #Mars #moon
