UMSF's (and, more importantly, The Planetary Society's) very own elakdawalla won a well-deserved honor today!

They should name the award for Emily. What science writer wouldn't want a Lakdawalla on their mantle?

Thank you guys. I'm delighted and honored to have won; and excited that the one time I'll get an all-expense-paid trip to the DPS meeting, it's in France We'll have to try to have some sort of European UMSF summit in October!

About time the work and talent of one of the very, very best science journalists to be found on the internet was honoured and recognised. Well done, Emily, your posts regularly set the standard for the reporting on stories of the exploration of our solar system, and many of the so called "professional science journalists" who write for newspapers, magazines and other branches of the media should feel ashamed when they read your work.
