Meet the ‘visor’ for the Roman Space Telescope 🧢✨ To shield Roman’s telescope barrel from unwanted sunlight, NASA engineers consulted origami experts to design a foldable sunshade — the Deployable Aperture Cover. go.nasa.gov/47bJzYO

Shine bright, NGC 5033 💖 The glowing heart of this galaxy is called an active galactic nucleus. Seen at the center of this #HubbleClassic view, it's powered by a supermassive black hole and shines brightly across the whole electromagnetic spectrum: go.nasa.gov/47sL453

Our shoebox-sized BurstCube satellite detected its first gamma-ray burst! These are the most powerful kinds of explosions in the cosmos. This one is called GRB 240629A, and it occurred in the southern constellation Microscopium: go.nasa.gov/3Mu77yz

Feeling so fly like an...ARCSIX? Over several weeks this summer, NASA researchers and agency-funded partners with the ARCSIX mission flew planes over northern Greenland to study how clouds affect the way sea ice behaves during the summer melt season. go.nasa.gov/3MuDop2

Mars was once wet – so what happened to its water? 💧 Hubble teamed up with the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN) mission to find out more about how much water there was, what happened to it, and how its atoms escape into space: go.nasa.gov/3MBBbbv

Flash flooding inundated villages, swamped farmland, and damaged infrastructure in Sudan. @nasa’s Terra & Aqua satellites captured these enhanced-color images showing floodwater (dark blue) along the Nile and Atbarah rivers before and after the rains. go.nasa.gov/4dQ9jMM

You’ve heard of solar and wind energy, but what about the energy behind solar wind? NASA and @ESA spacecraft may have helped solve the mystery of what powers the stream of energetic particles that flows out into the solar system called the solar wind. go.nasa.gov/4dQ35fG

Hooking up stars and planets and moons? For Goddard Glossary, we’re defining conjunction — specifically, the kind you might see in the night sky. So next time you hear about a conjunction, look up! That’s their function.
