Don't be stingy with whom you extend your hello. Every individual has a piece of knowledge to offer you.

The nice French man next to me on the plane while I pointed out all the mountains/parks/lakes we were flying over

Likely the closest I’ll ever get to the actual thing! Thank you to @aurelia_labs and @GoZeroG for allowing me the opportunity to celebrate the culmination of my time at MIT in zero gravity! It was an honor to fly with you on behalf of the @mattfellowship! Ad Astra ✨

Patties in Zero G! Thanks to our friends at @aurelia_labs, two of our alumni are getting their first taste weightlessness this weekend. Brandon (Class of 21) flew yesterday, and tested out gecko grip in microgravity alongside fellows of our sister programs! 🤩🤩

A successful launch of AEROS can be monumental in proving the power of how small, more affordable spacecraft can achieve large scientific feats 💪🏽🛰️ The team was such a pleasure to work with! Rooting for a successful launch today 🚀

I’m honored to be included in this year's #ForbesUnder30 cohort, and even happier to see @Forbes recognize impact-driven research in science and engineering. Many thanks to my friends, colleagues, and mentors who share my vision for a peaceful space domain. It's a group effort!
Congratulations to Thomas González Roberts for earning a spot on @ForbesUnder30! His work comes at a crucial moment in the history of space exploration – Here's to a future where the final frontier remains a realm of collaboration and exploration 🛰️ ow.ly/nMO250QcA3i

I’m 8 weeks out from my defense (panic intensifies) The mountain of things to wrap up is pretty overwhelming at this point, but I’ve found a little bit of comfort in my current daily mantra: it doesn’t all need to be done today, it just has to be worked on

Solidarity to all those PhD and postdocs who are constantly having to worry about countless visa applications to present at conferences, work with collaborators abroad & constantly having to think about residency issues whilst working hard on short term fixed contracts …
