Please support federal funding for research. It's the engine that drives new technologies, startups, security, workforce. It's invisible to most people but foundational for our nation. The proposed cuts will hurt us in coming decades...when we can't make up that deficit.
Space science is important for all Americans. Private aerospace ventures benefit immensely from the training pipeline made possible by university space science programs. #SpeakUp4Science

#PhDPosition We are looking for most outstanding PhD students to work with me at the DEPS in @HKUniversity, a top university in Asia (11th globally), to explore the Moon especially those with a BSc/MSc degree in geology, geochemistry, geophysics, remote sensing, GISc, or geomatics.

#AllMineralsConsidered : Clinopyroxene offers clues into the inner workings of volcanic systems, as @teresaubide (@UQ_News @UQscience) explains. Its ability to track where and when magma is stored may also help to forecast eruptions.

Volcanic beads in the Chang'e-5 soils indicate lunar volcanism is active 120 Ma! Remote sensing found young lunar volcanism (<100 Ma) for years but in debate without samples, this is the 1st time extremely young lunar volcanic products discovered! doi.org/10.1126/science.adk6…
Paper Alert 🚨: Excited to share our work on unbrecciated lunar basaltic meteorites in the context of lunar magmatic evolution. Thanks to all coauthors @teresaubide @nouchia24 ; editors and reviewers @MeteoriticsPS for this great learning experience. #Moon

Defended my thesis today😊 Grateful to everyone who had been part of this incredible journey.
Well this isn’t the end… it’s just a start of my journey of understanding the Moon and the Solar System.
