[NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman @NASAAdmin]

My favorite image so far. Orion, built by human hands in just a few years, set against a moment billions of years in the making.

We see our home planet as a whole, lit up in spectacular blues and browns. A green aurora even lights up the atmosphere. That's us, together, watching as our astronauts make their journey to the Moon.

Still frame from our Aerospike hotfire today. Stunning footage but experts will know what a green flame means: Combustion of the 3D printed copper. The engine performed well, but a critical area at the spike requires more cooling. But good result for the first methane attempt.

This is what I’ve been up to the last year! Building the largest remote observatory in the world

(By quantity of scopes)

[Nichole “Vapor” Ayers @Astro_Ayers]

Just. Wow. As we went over Mexico and the U.S. this morning, I caught this sprite.

Sprites are TLEs or Transient Luminous Events, that happen above the clouds and are triggered by intense electrical activity in the thunderstorms below. We have a great view above the clouds, so scientists can use these types of pictures to better understand the formation, characteristics, and relationship of TLEs to thunderstorms.

@booster_10 this one got me into it

[Gwynne Shotwell @Gwynne_Shotwell]

I don’t know what to say!

[SpaceX @SpaceX]

Mechazilla has caught the Super Heavy booster!

[SpaceX @SpaceX]

With a test such as this, success is measured by how much we can learn, which will inform and improve the probability of success in the future as SpaceX rapidly advances development of Starship

Aleksandr Sorokin of Lithuania set an incredible new 24-hour world record of 198.599 miles (319.614 kilometers) this weekend, breaking his one world record of 192.251 miles/309.399 kilometers set just one year ago. https://t.co/e8TijejegS
