SPHEREx is preparing to study our cosmos ✨ These early images indicate the space telescope's six detectors are working. The images aren't ready for science use but were processed to show the colors of infrared wavelengths, which are invisible to the eye. go.nasa.gov/3G14yDQ

What an overwhelming honor to be selected for the National Space Trophy! Thank you to RNASA and to all the mentors, leaders, and colleagues that I owe so much to. And it was so wonderful to be back in #Houston and to see all my friends from NASA . A wonderful evening!

Today, we remember ASE Founding Member Alexei Leonov on his #birthday. Leonov flew to space twice in 1965 and 1975 (Voskhod 2 and the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project). ✨

Riding into orbit 👩‍🚀 On June 18, 1983—42 years ago today—astronaut Sally Ride became the first American woman to travel to space. Ride and her crewmates deployed two satellites and conducted scientific research during their six days in orbit aboard space shuttle Challenger.
