In about 3 weeks, I’ll be attending Astronaut Training Experience at SpaceCamp as an educator! I’m so excited! Not bad for John, the world’s biggest 12 year old. Speaking of 12, that is also the number of former and current astronauts who have attended SpaceCamp. Astronaut Kate Rubins, who is on the ISS right NOW, attended as a seventh grader. #nasa @issnationallab @iss #space #stemeducation #spacecamp #iss #huntsvillealabama #launchamerica #stem https://www.instagram.com/p/CHcDEIWjriP/?igshid=rb5zh2exe8bt

My Jupiter image from yesterday has been selected as a featured image on the front page of NASA’s Mission Juno site almost one year after another one of my images was featured. https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ-I85-DtzV/?igshid=17bv4zigqmnrw
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
An American Heritage Girls troop invited me to come speak about astronomy and women in STEM / Space Science. The girls had amazing questions and I got to be dramatic in my teaching. #astronomy #nasa #stem #stemgirls #solarsytemambassador #americanheritagegirls https://www.instagram.com/p/CZN4_eHsAjJ/?utm_medium=tumblr
When you’re the daughter of a NASA/JPL Solar System Ambassador, you get to see and read about cool stuff like this Space Shuttle tire at @tellusmuseum #TellusMuseumSummerFun (at Tellus Science Museum) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTApARJpoYI/?utm_medium=tumblr
Get your boarding pass and join me in celebrating the upcoming launch of the SpaceX Crew Dragon - Resilience. Four astronauts are scheduled to ride a SpaceX Falcon 9 to the ISS on Saturday, November 14, 2020. #spacex #nasa #iss #launchamerica #spacestation20th #internationalspacestation #crewdragon #falcon9 https://fb.me/e/1OVkkJk4Q https://www.instagram.com/p/CHRiOwjDBHk/?igshid=1w7e8usp6ffy4

Started the year off with an invitation from NASA to visit Marshall Space Flight Center. Hopefully, I’m about to get another piece of good news from them to start the new year. https://www.instagram.com/p/CJfWGB3js7_/?igshid=jl1ram2zbctu
Venus, Jupiter, and Saturn... These are what I consider my best images. I’ve learned so much this past year, but I have a long way to go. I’m really looking forward to getting Mars later this Summer. #celestrontelescope #celestronuniverse #celestron127slt #backyardastronomy #space #venus #jupiter #saturn #planets https://www.instagram.com/p/CBhhlXVHakg/?igshid=1t6l5o4999j6q
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.)
