This rock almost looked surprised that I was coming back! Thankfully, I was able to collect another sample here to replace the one I discarded earlier. This may be one of the oldest rocks I sample, so it could help us understand the history of this place. #SamplingMars

In honor of #BlackHistoryMonth, we pause to recognize the contributions and accomplishments of Black astronauts across @NASAHistory, as well as those on the ground who made these missions possible: go.nasa.gov/3oia9dh.

NASA has been choosing people to be astronauts for more than 60 years now. 👩‍🚀 Do you know how many people have made the cut as NASA Astronauts in all that time?

Kill the lights – we’re simulating a Moonwalk! Divers at NASA’s Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory turned off the lights to simulate what an Artemis astronaut might experience at the lunar south pole - long, dark shadows.

Nutrients in space are cool. For more on that, sign up for the #DeepSpaceFood newsletter at deepspacefoodchallenge.org/challenge! We’re cooking up stuff that’s out of this world 🚀

This week I had a 3D body scan at NASA to measure exact distances of all extremities. Now they can size a space suit by using those measurements. Can’t wait to start EVA training, but first I’ll have to make it through survival school next week. 😉

This iconic image of the first untethered spacewalk by NASA Astronauts Bruce McCandless II was taken #OTD in 1984.

We couldn’t be happier for the #MarsHelicopter team and our small-but-mighty rotorcraft to receive this award!

Many of you are familiar with the famous photo of the astronaut (Bruce McCandless II) floating alone above the Earth, which just happened to be taken 38 years ago today. Bruce took pictures too, and this was his view of the space shuttle Challenger while he was 98m (or so) away.

Standing down today due to a minor telemetry issue. We are giving the team time to complete a thorough review and will provide an update on the next launch opportunity for NASA’s ELaNa 41 mission soon #AdAstra

The plant roots 🌱 represent Space Lab Tech, LLC’s LilyPond hydroponics system that tests watering crops in space.

In 1960, David Latimer planted a spiderwort sprout inside of a large glass bottle, added a quarter pint of water, and then sealed it shut. He opened the bottle 12 years later in 1972 to add some water and then sealed it for good. The self-contained ecosystem has flourished for
