#Astronomers
Did you work on Astro-1? Astro-2? #uv #spaceshuttle missions?
35th & 30th anniversary event planning is underway
Read Nicolle Zellner's announcement to join the festivities and celebrate their #NASAscience achievements
#EGU25
Did we miss you last week?
If you didn't get by #NASA hyperwall for
"Accelerating the Discovery of #NASAScience"
or a literature exploration demo, view presentation materials at your leisure

The Science Explorer (SciX) is a NASA-funded digital library supporting research in earth science, heliophysics, planetary science, and astrophysics. Its advanced tools facilitate scientists in exploring the scientific literature, finding what they need, and accessing papers, data, and software. By connecting people with resources, Science Explorer encourages the reuse of research products and open science practices.
Total Solar Eclipse of 1869 was a pivotal moment in the devlopment of American "physical astronomy" (now astrophysics). Thank you, Rebecca Charbonneau for your elequont summary of the article I recently published with Tom Hockey.
