@planet_neish Congratulations Catherine 🎉

How do astrophysical disks, such as those around black holes and stars, evolve? @KeeganMarr will seek answers to this question in Sapporo, Japan with help from a #SIEF award. @westernuScience #scienceinternational

[The SETI Institute @SETIInstitute]

We know that life can appear around stars like our sun, and we know that stars like our sun will turn into white dwarfs at the end of their lives. So, perhaps we should be focusing our search around white dwarfs. @SPACEdotcom https://t.co/Gu3bmttCOn

Happening now: The safe mode command has been sent to Spitzer.

It takes about 15 minutes for the command to reach the telescope.

Where Is NASASpitzer 🛰️ Now?

See where the spacecraft is orbiting relative to Earth 🌏 and its orientation! https://t.co/8FbMYrfFXI

Fun Fact: Spitzer is in an Earth-trailing orbit around our Sun, and it will take about 50 years for the Earth to lap it. #SpitzerFinalVoyage

🇺🇸 Cerberus Fossae is the first active seismic zone ever discovered on Mars. Located about 1,600 kilometers east of @NASAInSight lander, this huge extensive tectonic structure was the epicenter of two significant MarsQuakes detected during sols 173 and 235.

If you're choosing your PhD advisor, remember that the research you will do for the next 5 years is important, but even more important is finding the person who will be your mentor and champion throughout your career. You will never regret choosing a great mentor. #PhDchat

Five years ago, India was declared polio-free. This incredible milestone was made possible by the health workers, governments, partners, and donors who didn’t rest until every child was reached. I can’t wait to see what India achieves next. https://t.co/p5G2WuwPZb

For me Science is the ultimate endeavor of humanity. But if it costs us that humanity then what’s the point? We’re people first, then scientists.

A late night full of excitement. 50 years after the first human moon-landing, Chandrayaan 2 is soon to be launched on @isro Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV) Mark III. Chandrayaan 10 years ago, was a major scientific and technological success. (Pix @prabhuskutti)
