1/3 Earlier this year, geoconservationist and @AussieAstrobio PhD candidate @clarefletcher42 spent four weeks living and working at the Mars Desert Research Station in Utah. This remote station provides scientists with a “testing ground” for identifying evidence of early life.

I am extremely proud to have finally got my first journal article published! It's been almost 9 months of back and forth since first submitting to the journal, and was a similar amount of work to write in the first place. doi.org/10.1016/j.spac…

Recently, I spent a month at @TheMarsSociety's @MDRSupdates research station. The 2 crews taught me a lot about research, living on Mars, myself, and my own work and how I could conduct it on Mars. I'm super grateful to have been supported by @TheMarsSociety and @marssocietyoz

Happy @UNESCO @GeodiversityDay! I'm so proud to work in geoscience & geoconservation for Earth & Mars. It means the world to me to spread my love of protecting our geodiversity at #UNCOPUOS or in this interview: unesco.org/en/articles/ma… What amazing geoscientists surround me😍

Day 3 of #ASRC & that's a wrap! I'm leaving having learned a lot, particularly about space weather + the Antarctic (didn't anticipate hearing so much of these, but I enjoyed thoroughly) + more. My heart is full feeling that the Aus space community is just that - a community 💖🚀

Day 2 #ASRC! Dr Carl Seubert of @SmartSatCRC, the 1st plenary today, has reminded us all of Australia's history of bold exploration to conduct ground-breaking science. Aus can and should continue this legacy! But we need the funding & jobs for fundamental sciences as well as R&D

Day 1 of #ASRC done! A year ago this was the 1st conference I went to in my PhD, so it's a privilege to attend again and reflect on the work I've done this last year and the connections I've made (many from ASRC). Looking forward to the next 2 days and more talks and connections!

The ACA's Prof. Martin Van Kranendonk led a trip of @NASA @esa @CSIRO & @AusSpaceAgency scientists and program leaders to the Pilbara, WA to see the oldest convincing evidence of life. These 2.7-3.5 billion year old stromatolite fossils help guide the search for life on Mars.

Thanks for providing an opportunity for an aspiring astronaut to ask a current astronaut a question about the Aussie Space Sector! #QandA Not sure it seems possible to stay researching Mars in Aus, but I'm thrilled to see @astro_meganne repping Aussies in the astronaut corps 🚀

Check out this chat I had about my work on @BoilingPointFM with @InnaOsmol and Liz Surovic! Hopefully a good summary of my work. It was a pleasure to chat with everyone!
