Ok but how cute are our interns?

It's #NationalSelfieDay, and we couldn't resist the photo op with some of the newest faces in our D.C. office. Thanks to AAAS CEO @sudipsparikh for spending some time with a few of our awesome summer interns!

“Science must be bipartisan,” AAAS CEO @sudipsparikh told @AP's @maddieburakoff. “The causes of Alzheimer’s are the same whether you’re a Republican or a Democrat. The fusion that goes on in the sun is the same whether you live in Topeka or you live in San Francisco.”

“I give up” is a phrase that never crossed the minds of the team who developed @NASAWebb.

AAAS’ inaugural Bhaumik Breakthrough of the Year Award honors 3 individuals who supported the JWST community and whose persistence amid multiple setbacks ensured the mission’s completion.

[AAAS @aaas]

In 2022, @ScienceMagazine named the launch of @NASAWebb as its Breakthrough of the Year. Last night, we honored the NASA individuals who supported this highly complex project for large swaths of the JWST community with the inaugural Mani L. Bhaumik Breakthrough of the Year Award.

Don't miss out: join us now for a fireside chat w/ @NASA individuals Bill Ochs, John Mather, and Charles Bolden Jr. as they talk about how they took the #JWST from behind schedule and over budget to one of the greatest scientific breakthroughs of our time: https://t.co/0VXvAPLv3Z

This didn’t age well

Gas option 1: 4.59
Option 2: 4.67
Option 3: 4.07

Turns out option 3 was just the digital clock outside of a bank, but damn if I’m not still sitting in the parking lot waiting to see if they can save me some money.

Once, just once, I asked a woman at the airport to watch my carry on instead of hauling it into a bathroom stall with me and she said no. I think about her daily.
