Some of my fondest memories of graduate school are from field trips with Professor An Yin. His sense of wonder was infectious and his warmth palpable. He truly was the heart and soul of our department. Heartbroken.
It was so cool to see the Vulcan in person!
🚀 We were so excited to welcome #ThinkerCon #STEM content creators yesterday for a behind-the-scenes tour of the rocket factory! Thank you for coming by! ✨ Check out this awesome picture of the group with #VulcanRocket ⬇️

Last week in Canada was pretty dope! I got to hang out with some pretty awesome people, learn and share experiences, tips and tricks to improve our scicomm across so many different media and platforms.
Special thanks to @AstroKatie and @Perimeter for hosting us!

Just this morning, the four #Crew4 astronauts were launching from @NASAKennedy. Now they're being greeted by the crew of the @Space_Station. Watch as they enter their new digs.

“I had somewhat succeeded in conforming, but had failed to assimilate.” As an immigrant this part of your story resonated so much with me. I’m so glad you shared it with us @jinthespaceguy it was beautifully written.
I waited more than a year to publish this, but I finally feel that it's the right time to release it. If you're new to my circle, this is the full story of me: link.medium.com/Wlcd7QPKPkb

I worked in Eran Zaidel's lab at UCLA as an undergraduate. He was a brilliant and kind man who made everyone in the lab (especially undergrads) feel like they had important things to contribute to the scientific process. I am so sad to hear of his passing.
I think back on this advice a lot that I got when I as a teenager in the military.
I think it saved me from a lot of anguish over the years. Hope this perspective helps someone!
