ClubHouse has been the generator of profound experiences for me. Day before yesterday, I got to take part in a session with the discoverer of 2014 UN271 with a physicist and an ex-JPLer. It took some wrangling to get everyone together, but

Yes, it's an atmospheric probe as opposed to a lander. However, their pitch is simple - "we want to bring modern spectroscopic equipment to Venus". The data it generates should give us a lot of insight into its planetary evol

You always can! There are tons of outreach communities, and good design + programming skillsets are always needed. If you're on ClubHouse, I'm happy to invite you to Small Steps & Giant Leaps, we have regular "rooms"
