Candy was one of my favorite people in planetary science. Always a brilliant smile, loved every bit of science she did, loved explaining it and involving the public, bringer of joy and wonder to every science team. She is sorely missed.

Candy Hansen-Koharcheck was one of my favorite people to interview. She died last month, after nearly 50 years in planetary science. I wrote about her enthusiasm for capturing cosmic wonder and sharing it with everyone on Earth, for @sciencenews.bsky.social: www.sciencenews.org/article/spac...
Planetary scientist Candice Hansen-Koharcheck championed the importance of space imagery. Her legacy lives on in every pixel that comes back to Earth.
