Some of my favorite tweets:
Halfway through intros at the #NASATweetup and I'm already convinced that I'm surrounded by the coolest people in the world.
@nasajim: "Learning about something causes you to want to learn more about it." This is why educators and @NASA feed off of each other.
"The stuff Jupiter is enriched in is the stuff *we* are made of." -Scott Bolton, #Juno Principal Investigator #NASAtweetup
Huh? There is a Jedi on Juno? Question: Does it have a lightsaber? #NASATweetup
"you don't need to put on (3d glasses) yet, because we've already modeled @doug_ellison in 3d!" It's like he's right there! #nasatweetup
Where Andy grew up every dad was an astronaut. Buzz was cool because he could pole vault.
Want to work at NASA? Best advice: Study the right stuff and be persistent, according to @stevematousek
During Dr. Waleed Abdalati's presentation-
If it drains you, it's wrong. IF it energizes you, it's right. Your heart knows before your brain does - W. Abdalati, NASA Chief Scientist
"If it drains you, it's wrong. If it energizes you, it's right. I sought what energized me." -@NASA's Science Director #nasatweetup
"I wanted to wake up in the morning and really WANT to go do whatever I was going to do [for work]." -Waleed Abdalati, NASA Chief Scientist
Dr Waleed Abdalati, NASA Chief Scientist. "be fascinated, be amazed. It's ok to yell 'this is cool!'"#starstruck #NASATweetup
During Charles Bolden's presenation-
"You are a unique group of people because you are passionate about what you do." - Charlie Bolden #NASATweetup
"What would you say to students who want to have your job?" - @d_l_miller "Be careful what you ask for!" - Charlie Bolden #NASATweetup
@d_l_miller You just won the day. Wow.
"Do not leave @d_l_miller's class any day without having her answer all your questions." Bolden's wise words to students. #nasatweetup
@d_l_miller just got props from the NASA administrator :)
Bolden's advice to kids: "Do not leave Mrs. Millers class any day without having her answer ALL your questions." @d_l_miller #nasatweetup
Dear @SpaceCampCEO / @SpaceCampUSA @d_l_millerjust had a great interaction with @NASA Bolden - She would b perfect for Edu Camp!!!
@TheScienceGuy 100% agreement in your statement about teaching algebra better & earlier to attract females to math/science. #NASATweetup
'The Space Shuttle was cancelled during the BUSH Administraton!' - @TheScienceGuy Thank you for clearing that up! #NASATweetup
"There are more of us here at this tweetup than members of the press for this mission that could change the world." -Bill Nye #nasatweetup
So far, @thescienceguy has called about five things "the coolest thing ever." Funny thing is, he's been right each time. #nasatweetup
AWESOME, D! Sounds like such a fun weekend!!!
ReplyDeleteYour captions are so much better than mine! I'm going to use them as a reference to go back and update my Flickr photos.
ReplyDeleteWhat did Bill Nye put his autograph on for you?
Your pic with the aerogel came out really good! In mine you can hardly tell there's anything in my hand!
I missed the gravity table. What was that?
GREAT pic with Preston and the model. I'm so glad you won all the insulation pieces!
And finally, thanks for compiling links to videos, photos, etc. It's good to have them all in once place!
nina- it totally was. one of the best ever.
ReplyDeletemelissa- it says rocket science rules :) and the gravity table had all kinds of magnets in it, so when you waved the hand one over it, you were able to tell differences under the surface, even though it all looked exactly the same.
