Kepler mission: smaller stars have more short-period, small #exoplanets.
Theory: the smallest stars won’t have enough disk material to make small planets so there must be a turnover.
Kepler+K2: We have found a turnover!

From guest author Sakhee Bhure: We always say we’re made of stardust, but are we actually made out of our star’s dust? Today’s paper discusses the link between stellar composition, and their host planet composition, in order to answer that question. 🔭✨☄️

Walking in to NASA’s JPL today as a woman in science leadership felt almost like a protest. They can take us off the webpages and the walls, but we will still be here, absolutely crushing it, and supporting our community while we do it.
Happy International Day of Women in Science, everyone.
