A really great and diverse conference hosted by our own Desirable AI project here at the University of Bonn. Lots of great speakers and artists sharing their work. I spoke on Technosignatures as Pollution: Dominance, Irrationality, and Unsustainable Technology.

A really great trip to the SETI Institute and surrounding area to serve on the Science Advisory Board, attend the Drake Awards, and hang out with friends, Fellows, and my fellow leader of the Discovery & Futures Lab. Big congrats to Lori Marino for her well-earned award and vital research here on Earth!

It's official! The press release has gone live, and the Discovery & Futures Lab at the SETI Institute has launched! I am honored to serve alongside Dr. Lucian Walkowicz as co-Director of this exciting new initiative that bridges the natural sciences, social sciences, and the humanities to address the questions that attend the entire process of discoveries of life beyond Earth

The 2nd Earth-Space Sustainability Conference in Leiden was fantastic. I presented on Sustainability Puzzles and the Extraterrestrial Turn, and I also served on a panel for Starlight as Nature

Not only did I have a great time presenting at and attending the Democratisation of Space Conference in Norrköping, Sweden, but the organizers also facilitated a beautiful and bespoke 3D planetarium experience for the participants. Spectacular!

Many thanks to Norbert Junkes for arranging an invitation for me to present on "Ethics for Post-Detection Scenarios and Pre-Detection Messaging" at the Max Planck Institute of Radio Astronomy in Bonn

A wonderful visit to Australia where I presented on SETI and space sustainability and chaired an excellent SETI & Society session at the International Astronautical Congress in Sydney

I was pleased to participate in FOGOS (Futures-Oriented Governance of Outer Space: Toward Peace, Equity, and Environmental Integrity) Action meetings, held this time in beautiful Vienna at the European Space Policy Institute (ESPI).

The amazing team at the Sustainable AI Lab at the IWE at the University of Bonn put on another successful conference, at which I had the opportunity to present of Sustainability Puzzles and the Extraterrestrial Turn and to listen to many presentations on exciting, cutting-edge research in the area of Sustainable AI ethics.

As always, the folks at the PSETI Center put on an excellent symposium (and were wonderfully supportive of hybrid sessions!). I was fortunate enough not only to give a plenary talk on Sustainability Puzzles and the Extraterrestrial Turn, but also to contribute to an exciting and interactive breakout session on post-detection, as well as a panel on feminist ethics of outer space.
