A *really really* helpful chart re: NASA/Minibus from my dear friend @JackKiraly at the @exploreplanets Planetary Society. Because the CJS Joint Explanatory Statement gives the House and Senate CJS reports equal standing (unless contradicted in the Conference Report), you really have to "combine" the Senate, House, and Conference CJS reports to understand what is funded and what is not for NASA Science in the Minibus. Here it is (and thank you buddy!)

"Taking the Moon's temperature with beeswax"
by Andy Tomaswick, Universe Today
https://t.co/zuNX55qoji
A group from MIT recently released a paper in #SpaceSciRev that describes the design and testing results of passive sensors sent to the Moon on the ill-fated Rashid-1 rover.
With profound sadness and an immense appreciation for his groundbreaking contributions to the space science community, AGU mourns the passing of our esteemed and much-loved colleague and friend, Professor Michael (Misha) Balikhin.
AGU sends its heartfelt sympathies and support to Misha’s family and friends. May his memory leave a lasting impact and be a source of inspiration for our entire community.

🌌 Cosmic dust is spongier and fluffier than thought, says Prof Martin McCoustra and his international colleagues.
These “fluffy little sponges” may be key to star & planet formation – and even the origins of life. Read more: https://t.co/psygLaKxdw
