[Web release] The Hera spacecraft has performed a Mars swing-by to assist the mission on its journey to the binary asteroid system. The TIRI camera captured images of Mars's outer moon, Deimos, during the close approach! Read more: isas.jaxa.jp/en/topics/0039…

#HeraMission has a voice now! Thanks to developers at Terra Mater Studios, impactAI and Microsoft, you can now talk to Hera about her space journey. Curious how she feels after having recently flown by Mars and its moon Deimos? Take a listen 🔊👇 Have a chat with Hera Space

This is one of the most engaging projects I have worked on. Enabling anyone to connect to a deep-space probe and share the excitement of exploring the solar system. Goal is to enable voice interaction for all.

📽️Why does #HeraMission need autonomous surface feature tracking for self-driving, recently tested at🔴Mars? When Hera ventures closest to its target asteroid, it will have no other way of navigating: esa.int/Space_Safety/H…

This mission is totally incredibile, flying at 150m distance with a 2mm error 🤯 this is what ESA Technology is delivering for future applications in ESA Science European Defence and many other applications

As the #HeraMission flew past planet Mars, we kept a close watch on Oxia Planum, the landing site for the ESA_ExoMars Rosalind Franklin mission. Can you spot the area where Europe plans to land a rover to search for signs of life on Mars in 2030?

This team is incredible, few truly realize what it took to build and launch #HeraMission in 4 years. Their dedication and spirit is totally unprecedented. Sharing the first images of Deimos together was a huge rewarding moment #Brotherhood (ph. by Max Alexander)

Because everyone is posting the drone shots, how about the umbilical and pad shots ? Good luck to the team for the next launch ! source: Isar Aerospace Spectrum launch video

So, you probably won't believe how desperate Starliner's flight to the space station got last summer ... arstechnica.com/space/2025/04/…

ESA's #HeraMission launched six months ago! Hera has already been treated to exciting views of two planets and their moons, but there is much more to come once it reaches the asteroid Didymos and its moonlet, Dimorphos, in late 2026.🛰️🔎🪨🪨

To celebrate 6 months since #HeraMission launch 🚀 nothing better than a family reunion ☺️ recalling many stories on the launch campaign and the making of Hera

Asteroids are such surprising objects, they never stop amazing me! Look at this shape and two lobes that seem to me having different crater-count thus possibly different ages! Looks like one crashed into the other 😳
