Scientific paper

Twitter is a new media tool that allows users to connect to each other via short 140-character messages, called "tweets", and network with people from around the globe with similar interests. Such a tool is used by science centers, observatories, and space missions to update their "followers” on the latest astronomy news. We present on some of the ways that astronomy can be effectively communicated to the interested public in such a format and highlight the importance of dialog with members of the community. In addition, we introduce some of the many Twitter-related tools for keeping track of a busy account and monitoring your reach.
