Oooh, NASA unboxing video just dropped. 📦

[ARCHIVED: NASA_SLS @NASA_SLS]

#Artemis II will be the first crewed @NASAArtemis mission, sending four astronauts around the Moon and back home to Earth.

Watch as teams at #NASAMichoud unbox the engines for NASA’s Space Launch System - the rocket that will help launch them on their journey!

We are having some thorny technical difficulties, and will NOT be able to livestream our chat with NASA astronaut Josh Cassada. But stay tuned to our YouTube because we WILL post it later this afternoon!

[WashingtonSpaceGrant @WASpaceGrant]

It's happening today! We're having a Friday in Space, with presentations from Lummi Nation students, UW students — PLUS a downlink with NASA astronaut Josh Cassada at 11:45am PST!! We'll be live on YouTube!

How fitting that NASA officially announced the end of InSight's operations today, the northern hemisphere's winter solstice. As InSight goes dark, we here on Earth move forward into the sunlight of the increased knowledge we've gained from this little lander. Good night, friend.

First-year students who are applying to the @uw to pursue a STEM major are invited to apply for a WA Space Grant studentship! 🚀 Apps will be accepted through January 13, 2023, and are open to WA state residents who are U.S. citizens.

We are going.

For the first time, the @NASA_SLS rocket and @NASA_Orion fly together. #Artemis I begins a new chapter in human lunar exploration.

🌑 Tonight’s lunar eclipse is the last one until 2025! But what if you live on Washington's rainy side?? @WAStatePks has you covered. Did you know there’s an observatory at Goldendale State Park? They’ll have online eclipse viewing starting at midnight! https://t.co/ks9ZDcPRV7

The @UTEP Lunar Miners making one last attempt of some rough terrain — AND SUCCESS! #ArtemisLLTEC

[WashingtonSpaceGrant @WASpaceGrant]

Our summer Artemis Challenge has culminated in today — teams from around the Northwest and Texas are seeing if their robotic solutions are up to the challenge of our our lava tube challenge course! Join us live on YouTube! #ArtemisLLTEC

The Lunarticos from @UTEP deployed a very interesting multi-rover strategy. Innovative approach! #ArtemisLLTEC

[UW News @uwnews]

On August 19, @UW will host eight teams of college students hoping to go to the moon with @NASA. A culmination three years in the making, teams have designed rovers for use in upcoming unmanned lunar missions.
