Had a brilliant time opening this exhibit that includes OSIRIS-REx artifacts on loan from Lockheed Martin. So proud of our team and happy to be included!
Two women in a suit and long skirt flank a display case that contains a sample return capsule and a sampling mechanism. Both are engineering test units from the OSIRIS-REx mission. A red and white parachute is drape overhead. To the left a screen shows the sample-system arm collecting samples of the asteroid Bennu.

Tweet from January 2017 saying this guy has it straight with the hashtag WomensMarchOnWashington. And an image of a blond boy in a huge crowd. He’s holding a handmade sign saying “What do we want? evidence based science! When do we want it? After peer review!”

I was mistaken. It was co-pope, not deputy.

Could I fulfill the duties of my chaplaincy from an overstuffed leather chair?

My contribution to the Women’s March historical record…

We were never too cool for protests when we lived in DC
