Had the pleasure of meeting and listening to former astronaut Scott Kelly as he related stories of his life and his year on the International Space Station.

In a few hours, NASA is launching the DART Mission. The goal of this mission is to see if, and how much, a small impact probe can alter the course of a small asteroid. In addition to the impact probe, there is a cubesat with two cameras dubbed LUKE and LEIA. . . . . . @nasa @nasasolarsystem #solarsystemambassador #DART #DARTMission https://www.instagram.com/p/CWpGxGYMnmn/?utm_medium=tumblr

On this day in 1971, Alan Shepard, hit golf balls on the Moon. On this day in 2009, I almost killed a duck as I sliced into a water hazard. #apollo14 #alanshepard #nasa #golf #spaceflight https://www.instagram.com/p/CK92g_8jX-L/?igshid=1me0i5d8s7mfu
Did you know: NASA's SpaceX Crew-2 is the first NASA Commercial Crew Program mission to fly two international partner astronauts? Both Thomas Pesquet of ESA - European Space Agency and Akihiko Hoshide of JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) will be aboard the Crew Dragon launching April 22 to the International Space Station. #nasa #crewdragon #iss #solarsystemambassador https://www.instagram.com/p/CNmFBvmj2Qk/?igshid=1vvs39ahvj71a

It’s gonna be a long night! I’m super excited to be at @kennedyspacecenter for the Artemis 1 Launch! The launch is scheduled for 8:33am local. There will be a two hour window. If it doesn’t launch tomorrow, the next window is September 2, 2022. . . . . . #explorepage #artemis #artemisgeneration #stem #nasasls #SLS #orion #wearegoing #nasaexploration #solarsystemambassadors (at Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch09ZFquI_l/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I host public outreach events about the science and research taking place everyday on the International Space Station. A favorite event of mine is called "Story Time From Space", where astronauts onboard the ISS read children's stories featuring space science and STEM topics. (Opinions are my own.)
