@tylerni7 Awesome I’ll check it out thanks !

Thanks @TheRealBuzz for promoting my article and helping to guide NASA policy: https://t.co/poXCR4wEK7

NASA just finalized its strategy for a "continuous heartbeat" of humans in LEO—a commitment I called for in my recent OpEd https://t.co/q6ebclLG27.

Sustaining LEO is key to innovation, research, and growth.

@ArmsControlWonk @tylerni7 @michaelnute This is very cool! Is there a link somewhere to the tool? Would love to look into it further.

@TobiasMarriage Can't judge a fish by it's ability to climb a tree!

Humbled to see @TheRealBuzz share my recent OpEd on continuous human presence in LEO. An honor to have these ideas resonate with one of the greatest pioneers in space exploration! https://t.co/q6ebclL8cz 🚀🌌 #SpaceExploration

[Dr. Buzz Aldrin @TheRealBuzz]

This is an interesting opinion piece highlighting the merits of maintain a continuous human presence in LEO – an increasingly important topic as we get closer to the deorbiting of the International Space Station. There are some very good practical points raised here that are worth reading. Thank you for putting pen to paper!

@TheRealBuzz Thanks for reading Buzz! It is a SERIOUS issue and we have to make sure NASA/USA does not move away from a permanent human presence in LEO. I’m glad you enjoyed my work and I hope our generation will continue the exploration legacy that you’ve trailblazed.

@devilcaresnada @TheRealBuzz With humans on board all you had to do was screw in a bolt. But if the space station is unmanned, there’s no way to fix it, and the past 3 years of work are for naught!

[manwei @themanwei]

@devilcaresnada @TheRealBuzz 2) Researchers aren’t perfect (I know from experience). Imagine spending years on a project that you sent to a space station only for it to malfunction from something that’s not your fault, say a loose screw due to the vibrations on launch.

[manwei @themanwei]

I also touch on points by @GregWAutry @DavidJUrban that regressing to an intermittent presence in space cedes low Earth orbit to China's space program.

🚀 Humans belong in space—not just for missions, but for the long haul.

Check out my latest OpEd in @SpaceNews_Inc: "Continuous Human Presence in LEO: A True Commitment, Not a Temporary Excursion."

@syndamn When?? I’m hoping to be there next week.

@JoshEIngersoll Definitely for hot Cheetos

[manwei @themanwei]

With 5 in 1 soap(?), what are the other two items besides shampoo, conditioner, and body wash?

The must underrated perk of the @mattfellowship is having a conference crew for life, even in Paris at #IAC2022! Come join our space family; applications are open now!

We spy three #MattFellowship Alum! Congrats Cadence (@CP_OD), @AaronZucherman, @themanwei!
