I think @__katrinarenee @NebulousNikki @Chandelis does an amazing job covering space. Its important to see someone that looks like you covering the thing you love the most. ✨️🔭🛰🚀
Space journalists are essential: they decode complexity, inspire future explorers, and ensure accountability in science. Let’s uplift their role this #SharingTheUniverse day. Do you know any Space journalists? #BlackSpaceWeek

NEW: Results from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) suggest that Dark Energy, a force that is pushing the Universe apart, may be weakening. That MIGHT mean that the Universe will end in a big "crunch" after all. (by @Chandelis ) npr.org/2025/03/20/nx-s1-533…
