Good news from #ParkerSolarProbe this weekend–spacecraft made it through its 4th encounter with the Sun! That means another decal goes up on the window #parkerstickerprobe
Venus nice and bright this evening. #ParkerSolarProbe successfully completed a flyby just a few hours ago!

Our paper on plasma turbulence near the Sun measured by the @PSP_FIELDS and @TheSWEAPLife instruments on @NASASun #ParkerSolarProbe, and presented at #AGU19, has just been accepted for publication and is available at arxiv.org/abs/1912.02348
9 years ago, the @NASASun #ParkerSolarProbe Radio Frequency Spectrometer was a sketch on a whiteboard. Today at #AGU19, we presented radio spectra measured in the inner heliosphere, including these beautiful Type III bursts.

Happy birthday Wind!

Had a great time seeing (and sharing!) a little @PSP_FIELDS data at the #AGU18 #ParkerSolarProbe session this morning! Can't overstate how excited we are to start analyzing data.

First light images from #ParkerSolarProbe indicate all instruments are working well, including @PSP_FIELDS. We saw a solar radio burst shortly after deploying our antennas!

Thanks to @DiabloMagazine for including me in the "40 Under 40" list in the September issue, talking about our exciting new @PSP_FIELDS instrument!

#ParkerSolarProbe is bringing more instruments & systems online! Recently:
✅ Electric field antennas deployed
✅ Covers of 2 solar wind instruments opened
✅ High-gain antenna moved through its full range of motion
Get all the details: go.nasa.gov/2wNwMLT

Awesome! We're here on the causeway too! Go PSP!
Parker #SolarProbe looking good for launch. 95% favorable weather. Spacecraft in good shape. And I'm in place at the NASA causeway for viewing. Go PSP!

I'll be thinking of him this weekend as we watch the @NASASun #ParkerSolarProbe launch. Thanks very much to @MarcinKeene for this piece of history!
