@SEE_Aerospace @astrobotic Fantastic job OD’n and maneuverin her home !

[Rusty @NASA_Rusty]

@astrobotic Along with the rest of your Ops Team.
Amazing job wringing every last bit out of the mission.

[Rusty @NASA_Rusty]

@astrobotic Whoever's writing these deserves the Space Ops Nobel.

[Rusty @NASA_Rusty]

@Astrogator_Mike @SEE_Aerospace @astrobotic Thinking about you today, my friends.

[Rusty @NASA_Rusty]

Really enjoying getting the word out about this great mission. @nasaames

@GaryTyrrell My first album.
Still have it.
Still play it.
Still play the hell out of air drums and tambourine on track 3.

Okay this turned out not so bad. It’s pretty fun getting to talk about the mission. https://t.co/D3aEJSCn9j

This weekend we're celebrating the 40th anniversary of Sally Ride's trailblazing flight on STS-7! 🎉🌟 As the 1st American woman in space, she ignited the imagination of millions and paved the way for future generations of space explorers. #ShineLikeSally

What a great success.
And cool.
Lasers!
Pew! Pew!

They can’t stop. They seem to feel any dead air space is a personal and professional failure.

This.

I miss the days when NASA PAO didn't talk while space-to-ground comms were going on.

[Rusty @NASA_Rusty]

This is getting real!

[NASA Ames @NASAAmes]

And so, it begins.

We've officially started the final build of VIPER, @NASA’s first robotic Moon rover.

Proud to be part of @NASA and #VIPER, honoring the awesome humans who came before us.

Melba Roy Mouton—a NASA mathematician and key figure in the Apollo era—is being honored with the naming of a mountain on the Moon’s South Pole.

Mons Mouton is the future landing site of VIPER, our rover set to explore the lunar surface for Artemis: https://t.co/Fng8iiGOWp #BHM

I feel affirmed.

The goal of all tinkering men is to gradually accumulate an entire hardware store & electronics store in their home workshop

Eventually they die. Their survivors have no idea what to do with all of this stuff, so they have a garage sale visited by tinkerers & the cycle continues

BREAKING 🚨: NASA’s InSight lander is no longer responding.

Its final message was “My power’s really low. Don’t worry about me though…”

A stadium with 100,000 people and 100,000 dogs would be awesome.

[Rusty @NASA_Rusty]

Rusty is a dog name.
🐶🟦⬜⬜⬜⬜😃

In a stadium of 100,000 people and 100,000 dogs, 126 dogs and 5 people would be named Rusty.

What about your name? https://t.co/Um9yfWVe2Q

Our VIPER Moon rover prototype endured testing to the max to help prepare us for the build stage next year! VIPER will be the first-ever resource mapping mission in some of the coldest spots of our solar system at the Moon’s South Pole! https://t.co/6GWvr3pzV9
