Attempting to become a #twitter convert. So an #introduction is due I suppose? I'm a scientist (astrophysics) who studies the atmospheres of planets around other stars. Passionate about communication science to the public, particularly when it comes to habitability of exoplanets! Follow me for science, cats, and crafts <3

Also relevant to my #introduction - I am on the team that will be getting the first #NASA #JWST data of planets around other stars! Stay tuned for exoplanet results later this summer!

@_astronoMay - we need to get NASA to create an account for @JWST asap!

@fdfolson I know some of the NASA social media folks, maybe I'll send them a message ;)

@_astronoMay just this week, the European Union institutions joined the #fediverse by creating both a mastodon and a peertube instance and now @EUSPA is among us.

NASA could make its own instance and we could have @[email protected] and that would be so cool to have public institutions using public software (while private SpaceX use private Twitter...)
