The four Artemis astronauts are on stage hugging at a press conference the day after returning to Earth
Another Artemis post because I'm spending my Saturday afternoon watching their press conference. They are so inspiring, I love them so much
My heart aches for the NASA social media manager who had to end a YouTube livestream with who knows how many hundreds of thousands of people watching and queue up a new stream for the post splashdown press conference
A week ago, my partner didn't really care about space affairs. Last Friday she came home to me watching NASA coverage of Artemis and we stayed up late while I nerded out; fast forward to tonight and she's been locked in for six hours at this point 🥰 love for space exploration is contagious

Excited for this! "MS NOW announced a series of investments and collaborations with three leading nonprofit journalism organizations in support of investigative and local journalism across the country: The Pulitzer Center, States Newsroom and The Marshall Project" 💯 www.poynter.org/commentary/2...
I appreciated going on @msnowreports.bsky.social earlier this week, with my co-reporter @annaflagg.bsky.social to talk about our most recent reporting on the detention of immigrant children.
The producers on @anacabrera.bsky.social's show are great to work with.
