Hello #astrodon! I feel like I just walked into a party, and I don’t know anyone. So here’s my #introduction: I’m an astronomer at UC Santa Cruz where I’m growing an astrobiology program and studying exoplanet demographics using data from Kepler, TESS, Keck, and JWST.
@nbatalha - I'm also here in Santa Cruz. I'm have nothing to do with astronomy or physics (I'm a computer networking type) but I know people who you probably work with at UCSC and who have mentioned astrobiology. I just listened with my jaw kinda of hanging open in wonder.
