Companies and universities are cancelling women in STEM scholarships, programs, clubs and community events because of Trump and Musk’s Executive Order. 

The morale of women in STEM at these universities and companies are LOW. And let me tell you how dangerous that is for the rest of us. 

Take the Aerospace Industry for example. We’re an AGING industry, which means that people are retiring faster than we can replace them. Which means we have a RECRUITMENT problem. 

It’s so bad that last year there was a MEETING OF THE MINDS in DC where they brought in Execs of top aerospace companies along with top marketing professionals and media specialists (like me!). We came together to solve one problem: how do we recruit young people to work in aerospace?

Without solving that problem, our nation will not maintain our competitive edge. 

Women make up half the population but only about 14% of aerospace engineers. Improving our engagement of this demo will have HUGE impacts overall. 

The same is true is most other engineering fields. 

Removing the support system we have to maintain this demo will similarly have HUGE impacts overall. 

So let me repeat this: women in STEM programs are not a “nice thing to do” - they are an investment strategy to maintain a competitive edge both technologically and economically. 

We will pay for the money “saved” by removing these programs for decades to come. 2025-02-12 20:40:34 Companies a.. 24,819 +89% 551 +21%

Stars for little stars ⭐️ 

Over the years I’ll select little girls to gift these Star charms I flew to space. I hope it helps inspire them to reach for THEIR stars, no matter what those may be. 

🌟 to answer a few questions I’ve received in my DMs, these are not for sale. I only have a limited number of them so each one will be given out as a gift. 

💗 there’s no process for getting selected (currently) and there’s no way to know when I’m choosing someone. I simply LOVE surprises. ☺️

🎫 I’ve always adored the idea of a golden ticket - Willy wonka style. Perhaps one day I’ll do that as well. We’ll see 💫

In the meantime, I hope these stars find their way to happy homes and help inspire little girls. ⭐️ 2025-02-05 18:30:00 .. 5,969 -54% 278 -39%
1M of you?!!! THANK YOU 😭. 

I started this account around 10 years ago when I first began hosting Xploration Outer Space and covering the space industry as a journalist for Tech Crunch. 

My career has taken many twists and turns over the years but whether you know me from Bill Nye Saves the World, my Ada Lace adventures, my women’s activism, Emily’s Wonder Lab, or my recent spaceflight- I’m so glad you’re here. 

This community here is thoughtful and empathetic but unapologetically fierce. You’ll find cute science activities for kids one day, and then a post fighting for reproductive rights the next. 

The vibes are immaculate. 

We’re a group of people who love science and exploration. 
And Moms who want to inspire their kids. 
And Women in STEM fighting for their place in their field. 
And space enthusiasts who just love the universe. 
And those who fight for a better future. 

Multi-hyphenate community right here 💪🏻 

Love you space pals, thanks for being here 💗🚀 2025-02-04 18:30:00 .. 9,625 -27% 171 -62%
You first. 

Those who fight against diversity initiatives are often afraid that their own mediocrity might, for the first time in their life, be challenged. 

Warren Buffet once stated that one of the reasons for his great success was that he only had to compete with half the population.

Diversity makes us ALL better. Lack of it leads to inefficiencies and comes at a cost - our time, our money, and our health. 2025-02-02 18:30:00 You first. Those who fi.. 38,114 +191% 629 +38%

The <seeing women> to <seeing yourself> pipeline 💪🏻🚀

The other day, my son asked me “are you going to space again?” And I said, “oh sweetie I don’t know. That might have been a one time adventure.” And my daughter rushed in saying “no that’s NOT true. Remember? You’re going with me when I grow up!”
