I am honored to share that a paper that we published in Advances in Space Research was awarded the 2023 Outstanding Paper Award for Young Scientists by @CosparHQ! This wouldn't have been possible without @z_landsman, @AstroEaster, @astrocatherinem, and Daniel Britt.
Meet the first member of our #Artemis II Moon crew: mission specialist @Astro_Christina!
Christina Koch visited the @Space_Station in 2019, where she took part in the first all-woman spacewalk. She began her career as an electrical engineer at @NASAGoddard.
They're going to the Moon! Introducing the #Artemis II astronauts:

@CatieSlaughts Unless you did a combined masters+bachelors program, then you are still eligible! Or if you’ve finished your masters 2+ years ago you are eligible too. Otherwise yeah :/ I’ve heard it’s a relatively new rule. The eligibility requirements are confusing
The @UCFObservatory just got an upgrade 🔭
Students and researchers alike can now use the observatory's new capabilities for out-of-this-world discoveries!
There is beauty in transience. 🌸
Webb’s stunning image of a super bright, massive Wolf-Rayet star calls forth the ephemeral nature of cherry blossoms. The Wolf-Rayet phase is a fleeting stage that only some stars go through, soon before they explode: https://t.co/ZOAmKgtshI
