Finally, I think I can say someone made my heart beat fast this Valentine’s Day.
My doctor, with my asthma medication. My heart rate’s off the charts.📈
My parents: “this area has no lights. It probably has coyotes and driving safety hazards.”
Me: “_but the sky is so clear._ I SEE THE STARS AND PLANETS MORE CLEARLY.”
Them: 🙄 🙄 🙄 “that’s your first thought?”
Random thought for the day: last year I was talking to my friends about the idea of dying in what you’re wearing. Like if you were to choose your last outfit before dying, what would you want it to be?
Part 2 of that consideration: the ER rips your clothes no matter how expensive or rare… so maybe you also wnt to imagine finding out your favorite merch is ripped.
I cannot emphasize enough that solely text based chat is terrible if you don’t use emojis or gifs or exaggerated words. My mind automatically goes “they’re mad.” 🥲
#ParkerSolarProbe is our mission to touch the Sun, so it has to take a lot of heat. Watch this video to learn about the engineering that keeps the spacecraft cool, and head to @NASASun today for *hot* news about the mission! ☀️
