Congratulations and best wishes for the future. The excitement of that first publication cannot be overestimated.Feragorn 说:Necroing because it's worth it to keep this thread going.
As I've mentioned, I work at NASA now, taking some time between my bachelor's degree and hopefully an Astrophysics PhD. I'm primarily working with a group that does exoplanet work, on a project to compile a number of exoplanetary simulation and analysis tools. However, being with this specific group at NASA put me into contact with some other leading planetary scientists, and I may have lucked into a situation where my first publication credit will be as a co-author on a paper in Nature. They got the paper back from review, need to do some more simulations and analysis, and it's exactly the sort of work I did in undergrad and hope to continue in graduate school. So I'll spend another year or so here and potentially get some publications under my belt.

Which NASA facility do you work at?
The Trump budget got basically tossed out entirely as regards NASA. We're up a bit from last year, and all the major earth and climate science programs, education, research, and future critical missions got funded at the requested levels or higher. So, we're set for the next year.Stanislaus 说:Hopefully one that won't get its funding cut by Trump![]()
