Been so busy & haven't been updating much. Enjoy this last minute career fair board I made for outreach at an elementary school tomorrow! It briefly highlights some careers options in #astronomy & focuses on club members who are in the field & what kind of education they earned!

Did you know there is a secondary payload mission going up on the @NASA_SLS first launch (Block 1A)? Read more about it and see photos of ACTUAL flight hardware on my #funfactFriday blog post: https://t.co/sJrf9zyZjs
