Tonight, our beloved #MarsExpress makes its 2⃣5⃣,0⃣0⃣0⃣th orbit of the Red Planet! 🔴🛰️ But what distance has it covered? Make a guess, or attempt a calculation! Answer revealed tomorrow. At 00:55:07 CEST, #MarsExpress25000🥳

A green glow in the martian night. This is how the sky might look like to an astronaut exploring the polar regions of #Mars. 👨🏽‍🚀🌌 For the first time, a visible nightglow has been detected in the martian atmosphere by the ExoMars orbiter mission. esa.int/Science_Explor…

Spacecraft fall silent as Mars disappears behind the Sun... 🌍📡❔ ---- ☀️ ---- 🛰️❕ 🔴 🛰️❕ esa.int/Enabling_Suppo… #MarsConjunction

This is great! Always good to see more ways to access data from ExoMars orbiter, alongside tools at ESA's PSA News

"We're dreaming of a red (?) #Christmas..." 🎶 This #MarsExpress image provides a perspective view of a festive silhouette – an angel near the martian south pole. ➡️ esa.int/ESA_Multimedia…

The wonderful European Space Agency #MarsExpress that celebrates 20 years in orbit around Mars tomorrow, 25 Dec!

#MerryChrismas from #Mars! #OTD 20 years ago, 25 December 2003, ESA's Mars Express entered orbit around the ‘Red Planet’, the first European spacecraft to do so, after a journey lasting 205 days and covering 400 million km. 🔗esa.int/Science_Explor…

This is very cool! Make sure to click on the link to view the clickable high-res image on ESA web site with annotations in interesting features esa.int/ESA_Multimedia… and links to the underlying datasets at DLR for those interested :-)

It’s official, I have been adopted! Time to celebrate!

Phobos - Martian moon or captured Jovian comet?! Intriguing study by Prof Sonia Fornasier @LesiaAstro with European Space Agency ESA Science #MarsExpress mission showing surface properties akin to Comet 67P & other Jupiter comets. Important work for Martian Moons @JAXA landing. arxiv.org/abs/2403.12156

Stunning!

Fascinating discovery of possible lava flows on Venus from legacy Magellan data - augurs well for our upcoming European Space Agency ESA Science #EnVision mission to Venus that will map from upper atmosphere to planet core, with contributions from our NASA friends. esa.int/Science_Explor…

Thanks to our colleagues at NOAA we got some satellite pictures of #EarthCARE as it blasted off. Look for the little green flash at the top. Really cool that a satellite 36,000km away, designed for looking at something totally different can spot a rocket launch! 🚀

To increase the scientific return from our science missions, we're looking for scientists interested in research based on publicly available data in the ESA Space Science Archives. Check out our Archival Research Visitor Programme 👉 cosmos.esa.int/web/esdc/visit…

Did you know that Mars has clouds too? ☁️ And now you can explore them from home, with a new browsable collection of 20 years of cloud and storm images from our #MarsExpress. More from Europlanet 🇪🇺 👉europlanet-society.org/cloud-atlas-of…
