I can now mark “watch a launch from Vandenberg” off my bucket list. First time seeing a rocket with my own eyes liftoff from a location besides Florida.

Space fan who likes Hawaiian shirts? Pre-order through October 14; receive in time for Christmas. Though LSP Ohana (dark blue) is more my style, Aloha LSP (green and light blue) has tons of NASA spacecraft/ rovers, rockets, planets, & more packed into it. capekennedyclothing.com/prod…

PSA: Considering applying to a NASA posting on USAJOBs? Learn about the new process! "Once you submit, you will not be able to change your responses to the Written Interview questions." nasa.gov/wp-content/uploads/…

Big deal because we've been taught to do an early submission, in case USAJOBs website goes down, then edit later. But you can't edit this one page. (if there is a USAJOBs website issue and you can't submit by the deadline, then too bad. You can't apply for the posting)

NASA is about to open up many postings as covert contractors to civil servants, and do *some* catch up for internal civil servant postings since the hiring freeze started over a year ago. So lots of applications coming in from all over, both on and off NASA centers.

Port of call: Kennedy Space Center. 🚢🚀 @NASA’s Pegasus barge arrived today at the Launch Complex 39 area turn basin with the @NASAArtemis III core stage onboard! Check out photos from the arrival, and come back tomorrow as teams move it into the Vehicle Assembly Building.

I find it very ironic that "standalone" is a single word and not written as "stand alone"

Request: anyone listen to any podcast episodes with good tips for *updating your resume*? If so, please post the podcast name (episode name & link to it on Spotify would be bonus points) I have done the "Life Kit" one already.

🚀 We have been getting ready for @NASARoman's arrival. We've made a few upgrades to give NASA's newest telescope an ultra clean place to process before launch! It will keep the space telescope clean as technicians fuel it and prepare it for liftoff.
