How do rockets work?
Sometimes I teach at university, and everybody likes a live demo. A fire extinguisher is just a small rocket nozzle; a chair & cart make a good spaceship.
Folks ask how it works in space with no air to push against? But it's the mass blasting out that makes me roll. Doesn't need any backstop. Newton's 2nd law.
But always good to have a landing plan - thanks @UWaterloo students!
Great discussion about Dr Overbey’s space mission. I hope we will see her sequencing her genome in space 🚀 Space research is not only crucial for astronaut health but it helped healthcare on Earth. @seraspaceage@blueorigin#omics#spaceflight#flyeliah@EliahOverbey
Without omics data, we won't have personalized medicine in space.
My #SERASpace mission will be the first of many that releases astronaut omics data publicly for the purposes of research and entrepreneurship for astronaut health.
Thank you, @bgmayd!
🌕Something big is on the horizon.
Are you attending @IAC2025sydney? We invite you to join @bioastra and @LockheedMartin for an announcement you won’t want to miss.
📍 Booth 480, Exhibit Hall
🗓 September 30 | 1:15–1:45 PM AEST
We can’t say much yet — but we can promise it’s worth the stop. See you there.

🧬 Be fascinated by Dr Begum Mathyk’s research on mice and humans which show how spaceflight affects energy and hormone signaling, paving the way for tailored space healthcare, especially for women. 🚀 #WomensHealth#SpaceBiology#estrogen

@elonmusk The road to Mars goes through science and we need to consider reproductive health for the future. @elonmusk@NASA Looking forward to the livestream 🚀
The NASA Open Science Data Repository (expansion of @NASAGeneLab) has enabled biological & health discoveries helping humanity become multi-planetary by helping life thrive in deep space on Mars and 🌘 OSDR stores precious data anyone can use and analyze, plus a community of collaborative users anyone can join, and several public tools/trainings (including AI/ML) for space biology available 🧵
The life sciences community stands ready to support the #MarsGamePlan —advancing human safety, medical care, food production, sustainable living, and more. These efforts are vital for enabling Earth life to #OccupyMars. @elonmusk
