Let's talk about NASA Internships! Presently, they fall into two primary categories: Internships and Pathways. They both offer awesome opportunities within the agency. #NASAInterns
Internships are usually specifically tied to one specific program or mission and last a single term: Fall, Spring or Summer. The funding can come from a variety of sources and you generally aren't considered a civil servant. #NASAInterns
Pathways on the other hand are funded and employed directly by NASA in a civil service capacity, which means regular pay on the GS scale, as opposed to a stipend. They also are more general to whatever NASA center you're hired at. #NASAInterns

Let's take a break from talking about student opportunities and discuss one of NASA's most exciting upcoming missions: the @LucyMission to the Jupiter Trojan Asteroids! #Lucy2021
Lucy will be launching atop an Atlas V 401 later this year on a long duration mission to study two groups of Jupiter Trojan Asteroids up close using a complex flight plan of multiple flybys. #Lucy2021
These asteroids reside at Jupiter's L4 and L5 Lagrangian points, known as the Greek and Trojan camps respectively. The interesting thing about them is that they may offer us a window into the primordial material of the Solar System! #Lucy2021
