Warm people who have decided to support Smarter Every Day on Patreon,

I wanted to thank you for making what I do possible. I thought you'd like to know that I was nominated for an award and I'm on my way to Goddard Space Center to recieve it. This is a pretty big deal, because most "awards" are pay-to-play self-nominating kinds of things. This happened organically, and I'm very thankful. Thank you for letting me make educational content on the internet. You go the extra step and actually support my efforts. I really appreciate it.

Here's the award: http://astronautical.org/awards/ride/

Regards,

Destin
