One of the best things we did this summer ❤️

[Virgin Galactic @virgingalactic]

Dreaming of becoming an astronaut? So is Aegis - an inquisitive 6-year-old who loves space, spaceships and astronauts. A few months ago, we partnered with @wishsandiego, @MakeAWish and @ToTheStarsMedia to help make Aegis’ wish come true. Full vid, here; https://t.co/EBbQCdQpFG

I’m absolutely thrilled to announce the @virgingalactic scholarship at @PhysicsUoL. Thank you to @mmuric, @SuzieImberSpace and @katieali88 for their fantastic work putting this together and to @richardbranson for showing me the power of connections! https://t.co/5bPpyWkOm7

[Katie Westley @katieali88]

@nicolinaElrick For this program, yes - it's mostly due to ITAR-related restrictions our partner orgs have to adhere to for the internship portion of the program.

@PaytonBarnwell Literally every time we create a new program, someone says this or a variation of this to me. I now consider it a sign that we're doing the right thing :)

[Katie Westley @katieali88]

@chuie360 Big fan! Great for all the obvious tracking of things - activity, workouts, works with Health app, etc. Convenient for work authentication notices popping up on your wrist :D
