Lunch @SpaceCentreYVR w/ @neiltyson was a masterclass in wonder. We left more inspired, less dumb, reminding that when we look up, we remember what we share. That perspective is powerful. Every child deserves to feel it, question the world & imagine what comes next🚀
In-school fairs are ramping up!
Today was one of my favourite days in space, great vibes! Thank you for your support!
@SpaceCentreYVR is a unique #Vancouver institution where thousands of families & #Canadians can learn more about the wonders of science and 🪐.
That’s why today I was proud to announce we’re supporting upgrading this amazing place with $350,000.
My first Op-Ed that was really a team effort from the team @sciencefairsbc. Would love to hear some feedback!

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This is a still of a coronal hole, which are spots that are cooler and less dense than the surrounding plasma. This is very common and are almost never a cause of concern. The Sun has had larger holes in the past with no problems.
