I guess a NASA press release about my recent research is a good motivation to start tweeting 🚀
Huge thanks to the @EuropaClipper team and my collaborators at @NASAJPL (@stokes_flow) and GEOPS, France.

Scientists theorized about water vapor plumes on Europa (as illustrated in the image), but new research suggests any eruptions on Jupiter’s moon are likely to come from shallow lakes within the icy surface than from the global ocean below https://t.co/0wGxTzjP3g

Last month I spent 2 weeks on the Juneau Icefield, AK, to conduct an analogue Cryobot mission to Europa. Pretty amazing adventure with an even more amazing team 🩵

[ARCHIVED - NASA Europa Clipper @EuropaClipper]

Our mission will study Jupiter's ocean moon Europa from space. But future expeditions might directly explore the surface of icy worlds like Europa or Enceladus, and drill into their watery depths. How to prepare? Start on Earth! Welcome to Alaska’s Juneau Icefield… 🧵1/7

Fun first field season for the ORCAA project! Thank you @JuneauIcefield and great to work in the snow and sun (LOTS OF SUN) with everyone @Alpinesciences @stokes_flow @CryoElo @microShaffer @jclance_geobio @UTKMicrobiology

We celebrate the contributions our LGBTQI+ colleagues have made to space exploration and aeronautics. See their stories in our #PrideMonth gallery: https://t.co/RRffWDAdQO

[ARCHIVED - NASA Europa Clipper @EuropaClipper]

Europa is a water world, and while gathering on a rainy day to celebrate LGBTQI+ Pride Month, members of our team got a reminder that Earth is, too!

An evergreen reminder about embargoes... #LPSC2023 https://t.co/uyMY3BUDf1

@stokes_flow @PIanet_Erin @jtuttlekeane @rocks_and_jules congrats on your fantastic presentation! 🚀

Julia Miller—developing a new 1D thermal/compositional model for Pluto and Triton. While others have looked at this before, there’s no one model that has all of the processes necessary to explore these icy distant relatives. #LPSC2023

Happy #InternationalWomensDay!
Take in this epic photo of our community of women at JPL. Each group represents a generation - starting with our longest-serving employee, who has been here for more than 60 years! As of 2021, more than 30% of our workforce identify as women.

@vanschneider @stokes_flow @NASAJPL Thank you! I doubt it but please feel free to include it in your next mural ;)

[Elodie Lesage @CryoElo]

Onboard for a week of meeting with the amazing @EuropaClipper Science Team @NASAJPL! 🛰️

[Elodie Lesage @CryoElo]

@B_jour Congrats! 👏👏

[Bob Pappalardo - find me on Bluesky @RPappalardo]

The @EuropaClipper spacecraft’s main body went on quite a ride today: first across the clean room, then onto its shiny new “turnover fixture,” and now suspended sideways! It’ll stay there the next couple of weeks (unfortunately, out of the livestream view). #GoClipper #PI_Daily

[Elodie Lesage @CryoElo]

@B_jour You or your samples? ;)

[Elodie Lesage @CryoElo]

@B_jour 😲 too much suspens
