HI GUYS! IM SUPER PSYCHED FOR THIS.

Congrats on the successful landing (I bullied my entire family into watching it with me)!! I have two questions:

  1. I'm not really sure about this but I remember reading that MOXIE needed to heat up before releasing oxygen. Since it's technically in close proximity to Percy, which is powered by an RTG, is there any risk that it causes the RTG to overheat/explode/something like that?
  2. I'm a high school student and I'm really interested in astronomy but people keep telling me that it's not a field of study worth going into because of how saturated it already is. Do you have any advise on how I can study a space science subject (preferably astrophysics)?
