Live from my laboratory - I've just launched! 🚀 Let's do this 👨‍🚀

It's happening tomorrow! 👨‍🚀

Can't wait for my launch tomorrow, but as the time goes I've been preparing for my future to become an aspiring lecturer one day. Just a few days ago my course "Introduction to Astrobiology" kicked off, and during the first lecture I've had an audience of over ✨400✨ people live. This was truly a joy for me, including over the hundred questions that I've received live and after the lecture. We have discussed about extraterrestrial life possibilities, methods of science to look for such life, life on extremes ☣️ - in the deserts, lava pools and acidic lakes - and much more!

This showed me that I'm on the right way, people are highly interested in my field and there is only way - up. Meanwhile I'm preparing for other lectures in the course, working in the laboratory on space medicine 💉 and communicating science, the right way.

I am super excited to meet my future-time-holders! 🪐

Greeting from space, HumanIPO community. 🚀

I am glad to announce that I will be launching on February 6th, 7 PM EET (12 PM EST). Until then, I've decided to give a quick update on who I am!

I love to present myself as a creative person-slash-scientist. Since my childhood I've wanted to become an actor and spent my days and nights at the local drama theater having no other choice but to become one someday and star in science fiction movies. However, my dreams shattered as I didn't pass the audition and in a blink of a moment I became nothing.

And the feeling on nothingness inside gave me a kick. It took me a few years to recover and overlook myself from a different perspective, but now I'm the happiest I've ever been - trust me. Even though at school I did not have subjects like chemistry, biology or physics, my determination and motivation pushed me to the limits I never knew existed. Those limits aren’t even the tens of thousands followers, lectures, seminars, internship at NASA 🔭👨🏼‍🔬 and an urge to become the first astrobiologist in the country.

Trust me – bringing a new, perspective and futuristic field of science is not the easiest part when you’re just a student. I’ve managed to make it work – so watch out! 🦠

People (and one of those is me) are talking that in a matter of 10 years you’ll see me as a pioneer in the astrobiology not just in Lithuania, but probably among the Baltic States. I've gained experience in Silicon Valley while conducting research on the search for alien life and right now I'm studying the behaviour of living organisms in microgravity - with a focus on space medicine. 🚀

Can’t wait to meet you guys in the Lithuanian Astrobiology Center (when I establish one, of course) – a leading research institution in space medicine, extraterrestrial life studies and the future of humanity and life itself in the Universe.

Lifting off in 3 2 1, let’s skyrocket together! 🚀
