Prof. Danielle Wood (@space_enabled) joined @WGBH's Curiosity Desk to discuss the growing challenge of space debris and how sustainable space design can protect both the space environment and life on Earth. "I think it's so important that humanity pauses right now," Prof. Wood said. "We have a chance to say, look, we're about to have the ability to send things regularly to the moon. Let's be so thoughtful." media.mit.edu/articles/danie…
Join us Friday, August 7, for the Zero Robotics (@zerorobotics) summer finals, hosted by the Space Enabled research group (@space_enabled). Middle School Students spent the last six weeks learning to program autonomous robots, and on Friday their code runs in the final competition! Zero Robotics began as a program for writing code that runs on satellites aboard the International Space Station, and has since grown to include drones and other robotic platforms. The competition runs 11am–2pm ET on August 7, 2026 and will be livestreamed: web.mit.edu/webcast/zeroro…

Media Lab Prof. @space_enabled talks to @washingtonpost about how politics can affect space travel, noting that every visit to space — whether it's a commercial flight or a state-sponsored mission — requires government authorization. media.mit.edu/articles/three…
In The Tech, Prof. Danielle Wood discusses her path to MIT, from a high school internship at @NASA, through undergraduate and graduate studies at the Institute, back to NASA and @johnshopkins, and finally to founding the @space_enabled group at the Media Lab. media.mit.edu/articles/meet-…
"When people hear the term 'space technology', they tend to picture rocket launches, or maybe missions to the Moon ... Other types of space activity with strong social impact tend to get less attention" @space_enabled newhumanist.org.uk/articles/6460
This winter, Zero Robotics—an education outreach program led by Prof. Danielle Wood, @space_enabled, and the Innovation Learning Center—invites teams of US high school students to program Astrobee robots to manage crops in microgravity!

Last month, Prof. Danielle Wood (@space_enabled) and collaborators presented "Harriet Jacobs: Journey to Saturn,” as part of MIT's Artfinity celebration. This multimedia choreopoem combines spoken word, music, and dance to examine concepts of space through the writings of 19th-century African American poets and abolitionists, revealing a perspective of home visible only through satellite imagery.

Team @Space_Enabled is presenting nine papers this week at #IAC2024 in Milan, Italy, along with a large group of faculty and students from MIT. The Space Enabled papers highlight recent impact using Systems Engineering and the EVDT (Environment-Vulnerability-Decision-Technology) Framework to create sustainable and accessible space applications using Earth Science and Microgravity Research. media.mit.edu/posts/team-spa…
🚨🚨🚨I’m thrilled to announce the launch of the Toxic Prisons Mapping Project, Beta - a participatory research initiative to map the environmental hazards faced by prisons, jails, and detention centers. See toxicprisons.com & 🧵 below
Incarcerated people in US prisons are particularly susceptible to increased summer temperatures, such as the extreme heat waves of this past summer. In a new study, MIT researchers including Media Lab + @mitaeroastro alum @ItsUfuoma + Prof. @Space_Enabled combine high-spatial-resolution air temperature data with census data and information from the US Department of Homeland Security to map summertime heat exposure in prisons across the United States. The study, published in @theAGU’s GeoHealth journal, provides policymakers and community leaders with ways to estimate, and take steps to address, a prison population’s heat risk, which could worsen with climate change. news.mit.edu/2024/study-eva…
At 7pm ET on Sept. 22, Media Lab Prof. Danielle Wood (@space_enabled) will host a screening of "Sweetwater" in association with @BostonFilmFest. The event will include a Q+A with lead actor @everettosborne and Director Martin Guigui. The event is free and open to the public, but registration is required. media.mit.edu/events/media-l…
