Some questions on details of Artemis III. Are both HLS providers testing during it, meaning the 1st to be ready will have to wait for the 2nd to be ready? If only the 1st one ready gets to test, is there an Artemis III Part II when the other is ready? @NASAWatch @NASAAdmin

It’s already been a great start to this year’s field season for the GreenHab. 🌱👩🏽‍🚀 Over the season, I am having each MDRS GreenHab officer run a microgreen growth experiment, comparing growth media 🚀 We got an analog nutrition study going as well 🥗👀
Crew 322 (@CUBoulder) has been hard at work during their week at #MDRS in Utah — exploring, planting microgreens, testing comms & tackling daily station duties. A full week of #Mars analog life! More info: mdrs.marssociety.org. #research #stem #education #themarssociety

It was another great conference at #ICES2024 this year! I look forward to continuing to connect with the spaceflight community on the uses of hydrogels. I hope to be back in Louisville soon!

This will be the best I will ever do so the Internet has to see it. Even though I have moved away from the Midwest, I am happy to see I am still in sync with it

As a Wolverine in Colorado, it’s exciting to see more on the way #GoBlue
Our Colorado legislature just introduced a bill that would give us the authority to reintroduce the North American wolverine to Colorado. This bill still has many steps before it could become a law. Learn more: cpw.info/49BIOZt
