As always… please fill out the form for science!

Yeah, I’m awake now. That was wild. Biggest quake I’ve felt in years.

From all of us at the SETI Institute, we wish godspeed to Reid, Victor, Christina, and Jeremy for the safe and successful completion of the #ArtemisII mission. This is a profound moment not only for NASA but for all of humanity, and our thoughts are with you. Congratulations on a successful launch!

Karman line reached!

"Humanity's next great voyage begins."

Godspeed, Artemis II.

Oh. Oh. I am tearing up. I thought I was immune, but I was wrong.

We are go for launch.

Ah. He definitely knows more about that than I do from following the influences that combat that stuff.

Can we just... you know... eat?

*notes that Schiff is on the list*

Well then. I'll remember this next time he's up for reelection.

Yeah, I was deeply confused by why everything is protein-focused these days. I don't follow diet trends anymore. Then my husband pointed out the new food... pyramid? Whatever it is. It's heavily focused on protein. Which led me to sigh and roll my eyes. Just. Stahp.

I didn't know I needed this... but I did, and now I have it.

I'm marginally horrified, but then, we experimented with Peeps one Easter, including flambeing one. And then a friend said, "I want to drink it!"

Mistakes were made.

Yeah, Gen Z comes prepared. I raised one. I know. (When they take a shot, they aim it.)

My Yahoo email address is about 30 years old. I'm still friends with people I met on IRC in 1993. I have strong feelings about pine v elm and vi v emacs.

(I can really only claim the IRC one, but I joined that in 1994.)

Lost Pulsars

In a recent SETI Live conversation, @planetarypan.bsky.social spoke with William J. Welch Postdoctoral Fellow Dr. Karen Perez, lead author of a new study reporting the possible discovery of a pulsar candidate near the Galactic Center. 🧪 🔭 👩‍🔬

I always enjoy chatting with Cynthia, and this interview was no different. Amazing how scientists and engineers quickly repurposed existing spacecraft to observe comet 3I/ATLAS, including Europa Clipper!

I am an amateur astronomer who handles social media for two space science/astronomy organizations. I want to share my personal experiences and imagery.
