I've been waiting to see Orion fly to the Moon for 17 years now, going back to when Constellation was first announced in 2005 and to say that I was able to play a small part in it at MSFC this year is still amazing! Go Orion, go NEA Scout, go Artemis! #Artemis #WeAreGoing

LIFTOFF! 🚀✨ For the first time aboard @BoeingSpace’s #Starliner spacecraft atop a @ulalaunch Atlas V, @NASA_Astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams are on their way to the space station following a successful launch at 10:52am ET. Docking is set for 12:15pm Thursday, June 6.


Just got my LEGO Artemis 1 SLS model in the mail! Pretty cool to have a huge LEGO model of something I actually worked on two years ago!

I'll be on console supporting the CST-100 CFT docking tomorrow night! Excited to see Butch and Suni up on station after meeting Butch at SLC-41 for OFT back in 2019! #Starliner #LaunchAmerica

“America’s support is essential for Ukraine to emerge victorious and the fight against tyranny requires the Western alliance to hold fast,” said @RepMarcyKaptur this week at a conference exploring a renewed policy of containment towards Russia, co-hosted by @ACEurasia


So, I just got this 1/10 scale model of NEA Scout with the solar sail deployed from work today! Even though the mission didn't end the way we wanted, this is a pretty awesome memento from my time working on the project with some awesome folks

Heh, the POIC planning folks I work with should be happy that Cygnus is on its way now!

The @NorthropGrumman cargo craft launched at 12:07pm ET today carrying more than 8,200 pounds science and supplies for the Exp 70 crew aboard the station. More... go.nasa.gov/3HKX5q5

Got my assignment for next year: moving over to rotate with the POIC PAYCOM team that is responsible for communicating with the crew aboard the International Space Station on anything related to payload operations


Here's to all the mission operations folks on shift in Houston, Huntsville, and around the world keeping the ISS safe and running tonight and every night!

‘Twas the night before Christmas And all through Mission Control… Santa hats lined each and every console. The Expedition 70 crew was kept safe by teams on the ground, While St. Nicholas’s sleigh circled the Earth, all around.
