My first Moon pics using my new Celestron 127slt MAK.

Due to differences in pressure, temperature, and composition of atmospheres, sound waves would travel differently to our ears on Mars. This video shows how I sound on Earth and how I would sound on Mars. (turn sound on) #SolarSystemAmbassador #space #mars #perseverance https://www.instagram.com/p/CMSX5DDD_Dm/?igshid=1wa38o2h8446q

1969 pieces... 2 arthritic hands... 2 nights going to bed at 2:30AM... 6 Advil... 1 cranky wife yelling, “GO TO BED, IDIOT!” ... 1 six year old who wants to “help”... 4 curse words... Ok, I lied... 8 curse words... 1 freakin’ finished LEGO Saturn V. 👍🏻 #nasa #lego #saturnvrocket #saturnv #moonlanding #space https://www.instagram.com/p/B68_1X-HEUJ/?igshid=1c0o06h1hnbg0

My @lucy_mission shirt arrived! LUCY has just started a 12 year mission to 8 different asteroids! Each asteroid visited will provide more clues to the beginning of our solar system. #stem #nasa #solarsystemambassador #lucyinthesky #lucy https://www.instagram.com/p/CVUHlc_sXbB/?utm_medium=tumblr

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=
