Klaus Pontoppidan @pontoppi.bsky.social · 31/05/2025National investment in science and technology used to be a bipartisan priority for good reason. It has ensured American prosperity for the past century. I never thought we would be in a place where this basic reality was in question. 030

Klaus Pontoppidan @pontoppi.bsky.social · 31/05/2025With the presidents’ budget proposing to cut NASA science by more than 50%, a reminder that much of that is technology development, not duplicated by any private company. Once destroyed, the expertise that was built up over decades does not return. What a way to lose American leadership. 040

Reposted by Klaus PontoppidanIlaria Pascucci @pascucci.bsky.social · 04/12/2023Exciting JWST news: We've discovered the first water-rich spectrum from protoplanetary disks around late M-type stars! This finding opens doors to understanding how inner disks evolve from water- to carbon-rich. C. Xie @LPL with support from Alien Earths NExSS: ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2023arXi... 082
Klaus Pontoppidan @pontoppi.bsky.social · 03/12/2023Hello Cleveland! It’s been an eventful year for me, and not had much ability to post. But I guess it is time to rejoin the astro community over here… 050
