We are at the point in presentations about space habitats where speakers casually mention mining ammonia from Ceres.

Kitay: a lot of misinformation about the Space Force. It’s not about Marines dropping out of space or fighting aliens. People don’t understand the importance of satellites to national security. #VonBraun18

Kluger: are you frustrated, annoyed, angry that there’s been no one on the moon since you? Harrison Schmitt: all of the above. I realized in 1972 there was going to be a hiatus after Apollo 17, but didn’t think it would be 50 years. #ApolloPlus50

When I ask a young person how they screwed up something on a technical project and they tell me they haven't, I generally tend to suspect either that they are dishonest or that what they tried was really easy. Screwing up a technical project as a student is a feature, not a bug

Congrats, @yousuck2020! You should link up w/ @astrowright for a preflight fitness plan before you ring Luna, & if you ever become inspired to have an internationally-accomplished jazz trombonist (who is also a planetary scientist) join your merry crew, I’m all yours in 2023! 🚀
