Backwards Lightning!? 😱 Yes, lightning during intense thunderstorms can shoot up beyond the clouds to the mesosphere. This is a "gigantic jet" that creates a powerful bridge of electrical discharge extending from a thunderstorm to the upper atmosphere. Nichole Ayers, NASA #astronomynews #space #nasa

We were honoured to speak with @breefram.bsky.social about her career as an engineer in Space Force, the heartbreak of being forced out of that career for being transgender, and of course her love of Star Trek in our latest #TREKtivism episode.
