Whoa.

That's a sprite, an elusive, high-altitude electrical discharge from a thundercloud photographed by NASA astronaut Nichole Ayers from the ISS earlier today.

With reported sightings going back more than a century, this phenomenon was first photographed in 1989.

This was me when I started learning orbital mechanics, propulsion, and CFD. Today, women can become anything—even rocket scientists. But this didn’t happen overnight. I’m here thanks to the amazing women who paved the way, including my mom.

Happy International Women’s Day! 🚀💜 #IWD2025 #WomenInSTEM

Preparing and delivering this content was so much fun with @walkingrandomly.bsky.social !
Do you want to learn more? Let Mike or I know 😊
Nervously waiting to begin the first MathWorks webinar I've developed since starting my new role as Developer Advocate

Starts in 5 minutes and apparently this one has over 1600 people signed up!

Giving it again this evening (UK time) to another 1200 or so. There's still time to sign up!
