Had the amazing chance to see the Aurora last night from Washington state!

What does "live long and prosper" mean for a rover on Mars?

To me, it means taking in the beauty that’s around me. It gets busy exploring the Red Planet, but every few sols I try to soak in my surroundings. 🖖

@marsninja @yachtclubmonaco @ExplorersClub Hi Nina! We met at a dinner in Seattle a while back and I'd love to connect and maybe talk more about MSL if you're available!

If you’re into being cool (but not too cool) check out my paper on how to keep your Martian spectrometers free of frost!

It has been a good week for papers at the PVL! Our former MSc student Madeline Walters' first senior author paper was published yesterday in Acta Astronautica. Read all about water condensation in martian optical instruments over at https://t.co/E6UBIE0Flz

Why does Mars "burp" methane gas? 🦠 Los Alamos scientists are on the case — and the answer could be key to life beyond Earth.

9 months to launch, and @EuropaClipper has all its instruments!

During the spacecraft's 49 flybys of Europa, the instruments will gather measurements and images that will help us determine if Jupiter's icy moon has conditions suitable for life. https://t.co/Rh1GVYOKDu

What is so curious as a day on Mars?

Hey look – I’m a sundial!

Ok, not exactly, but I did get a sol to enjoy my surroundings. During solar conjunction, I used my hazard cameras to study the Martian weather and dust.

As this Earth year comes to an end, I hope you’ll take the time to soak in what’s around you.

"As more and more methane is being released in the Arctic due to permafrost melting as a result of climate change, it's really important to understand what's going to happen to that methane," @LassondeSchool Prof. Haley Sapers tells @CTVNews' @AkshayAnchor https://t.co/haioA4pkm9

[York University News @YorkUnews]

Haley Sapers w/ the Centre for Research in Earth and Space Science (CRESS) @LassondeSchool will be live on @CTVNews's This Hour With Angie Seth tonight at 7:45 p.m. EST to discuss her research on methane gas on Axel Heiberg Island and similarities to conditions on Mars.

Successfully defended!! Huge thank you to my lab and supervisors @ArcticSaxifrage & prof. Mark Gordon-it’s been an absolute pleasure! 🪐☄️🐄

[Anna O'Grady @AstrOGrady]

I'm very excited to share my and my collaborator's work analyzing the environments and spectra of a population of super-AGB stars we previously identified. The paper came out on the arXiv Wednesday! https://t.co/53vSMirACm Paper thread below, with a quick recap of Paper I!

This week on the PVL blog, MSc student Madeline Walters recaps the methane debate on Mars so far and discusses some recent developments: https://t.co/dvTGeF8pCT
