PSA: @ScienceWithJen is very likely a fake account. They used several accounts in just 2020, claiming to work at spaceX (until their account was reported & closed). Jobs claimed just in 2020: aerospace/engineering/flight ops, but all with an astrophysics masters degree.

I suspected this in 2019 and since then numerous new examples of fakery keep coming in: people have DM'd to tell me about it from large space agencies. In the last week they moved over to a new account once again, and anyone asking Qs to them about it gets blocked
They've been getting away with it for a long time by deleting all their previous tweets, making new accounts, but perhaps most importantly, blocking people who ask qustions. They have zero online presence at any agency they claimed to work in, it would be so easy to prove they do
Today I asked via a reply if they still work at spaceX, and they DM'd me instead so as to not talk about it publicly. Even though they've since claimed to be working in a European space company control room, they were simultaneously claiming to be off sick from spaceX right now
Update: they've instantly deleted their account. Watch out for it coming back again though :-/
Highly likely = definitely. Sorry, a scientist has to leave some doubt. This is them pretending to also work at NASA Goddard. Funnily enough I had just left Goddard the month before and know this sign well 👀
