My inspiration just got bigger with James Webb! I love this photo of the Carina Nebula. I’ve always been inspired by the stars and they remind me of how much we have to explore. I hope these photos also inspire the future explorers! #nasa #nasawebb @nasa_astronauts

NASA’s Chief Exploration Scientist couldn’t have said it better! The geology of the moon, the impact craters, the rocks, minerals, and meteorites contain a story. We have already learned so much from that story which takes us back 4.5 billions years.

I was lucky to attend Jawaharlal Nehru University for one year. This quote always stuck with me and is applicable to space exploration as to every day. Happy Sunday! #quoteoftheday #mindset #astronauts

NASA Astro Class 23 The fly shape represents our class, ā€œthe fliesā€. Twelve stars represent the candidates of class 23 and the UAE and US flags are both displayed. And of course the astronaut pose represents our faith in NASA’s return to the moon while keeping an eye on Mars!

The man in the mirror is Navy Test Pilot Jack Hathaway who I suited up today during our suit training class. It’s just a training mirror, the ones in space are clear and critical to reading controls on the suit (located at the chest) because it’s difficult to look around.

Glad to have Anna Menon back on planet earth with the rest of the @polarisprogram crew. Even put on our lucky Compton shirts with Haley Esparza which was the same shirt we wore on Demo-2, Crew-1, Crew-2, and Crew-3. We pulled it out for Polaris after the slips and, for the
