Working on the light gas gun today with @Amy_R_Dugdale ☄️🔫
Here she is rotating the gun to fire vertically - imo this is the coolest bit of the prep for firing because you can really see the scale of the equipment 💪

When I landed on Mars 10 years ago, I aimed to answer an important question: Could Mars have supported ancient life? After some careful analysis, the scientists on my team say yes! So, what does that mean? Hear more about that from my Deputy Project Scientist Abigail Fraeman.
