This guy is my hero.

Back at Stanford, our engineering units were named Al Wood and Woody Allen for the Opal and Sapphire satellites. We should have kept the wood in the system!

Brutal. 😞

Like a fly on the wall…

Incredible design, great to see the detail.

It’s heartbreaking and pathetic to see the fear of DEI result in the destruction of efforts that simply seek to love our neighbors. We did similar eclipse related activities and it was amazing as students participated in science and wonder. npr.org/2025/02/13/nx-…

After liftoff on February 26, Athena established a stable attitude, solar charging, and radio communications contact with our mission operations center in Houston. The lander is in excellent health, sending selfies, and preparing for a series of planned main engine firings to

To all the students that didn’t get in to University of Michigan , hang in there. Have courage. Make wherever you go your home and move on. You make the U, the U doesn’t make you. Go green. Go white. Go red. But still beat Ohio! 😉

At what point will AI be better than grep -R?

The world...is full of resurrections... Every night that folds us up in darkness is a death; and those of you that have been out early, and have seen the first of the dawn, will know it—the day rises out of the night like a being that has burst its tomb and escaped into life.

Watching all the NASA accounts tweet their last message is a sign of the times 😔

It’s funny watching Claude use grep extensively!

So excited!!

This could explain our antenna problems. 🙃

Just. Wow. As we went over Mexico and the U.S. this morning, I caught this sprite. Sprites are TLEs or Transient Luminous Events, that happen above the clouds and are triggered by intense electrical activity in the thunderstorms below. We have a great view above the clouds, so

“Don’t change the code,” after most claude-cli conversations. 🙃
