Growing up, too many kids have their career aspirations limited by the examples they see around them. When the destination is invisible, the path feels impossible. Introducing new role models today expands options for tomorrow. This is how to show kids what's possible.

Heads up #aurora fans. SWPC has posted a G1 storm watch for 9/27. There's an incoming CIR and coronal high high speed wind stream. Moon should be favorable and proximity to equinox (happy fall!) should help.

Many people including the president are cheering news of HIV cure in 2nd patient. You know what happened? SCIENCE. Science isn’t a goal, it’s a process of knowledge. And it applies to vaccines, climate change, and the wonder of understanding our universe and natural world.

#200women200miles-it's more than just a name; it's women expanding comfort zones and trying something different. It's a mom putting herself first w/o putting others last. It's toeing a start line in any DK distance. And it's inspiring the other women in your life to try it too.
