At 5:35 pm on July 21, 1969, command module pilot Michael Collins docked command module Columbia with lunar module Eagle. Michael Collins took this stunning photo as Eagle approached Columbia for docking. #Apollo50

We are NASA. We are not just a collection of astronauts, engineers & technologists. We share a dream of going farther than ever before with our #Artemis missions. Explore our NASA HQ PHOTO portrait gallery & learn how we’re making that dream a reality: go.nasa.gov/2ooThWj

David García, ingeniero aeronáutico por Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, cuenta a La Región cómo ha sido su paso por la #NASA prototipando los taxis aéreos del futuro. Esta oportunidad surge en #ETSIAE a través de una antigua alumna, Patricia Ventura, investigadora de NASA laregion.es/articulo/ouren… #somosUPM

Call me Perseverance. I'm headed for Mars: driven to search for signs of ancient life, test new tech to help future human explorers, and collect the first rock samples for future return to Earth. Follow me. Let's go. mars.nasa.gov/mars2020 #Mars2020

#Torino♥️, #Milan, #Verona, #Padua, #Venice, #Genoa, #Bologna, #Florence – we can see that your spirit is strong and still shining bright. Goodnight to all in #Italy! #GoodnightFromSpace #EarthStrong

[1/4] How slotted aerofoils increase the max possible lift - the main limit is the size of pressure rise the boundary layer can withstand before separation. A slot helps twofold: #aerodynamics #aerospace #Engineering #aviation #F1 #AvGeek

While on the way to the Red Planet, our Ingenuity NASA Mars helicopter had its batteries checked out and was powered up for the first time in space. 🚀 Keep up with the #CountdownToMars: go.nasa.gov/3iBKTtl

• Read everyday. • Spend time with nature. • Ask questions. • Never stop learning. • Don't pay attention to what others think of you. • Do what interests you the most. • Study hard. • Teach others what you know. • Make mistakes and learn. • It's Okay to not know things!
