Fairing separation. Free of its protective shell, our Roman telescope has its first taste of space.

Hello Mars, goodbye Mars 👋

NASA’s #MissionToPsyche spacecraft was speeding by the Red Planet on May 15 when it snapped this rare, crescent view of Mars. The successful flyby flung the Psyche spacecraft toward its final destination: the metal-rich asteroid Psyche. 1/2

[Hubble @NASAHubble]

When Hubble launched in 1990, there were zero known exoplanets.

Now, @NASA has confirmed the existence of over 6,000 planets beyond our solar system!

Take a tour to some of the wildest ones that Hubble has studied ⬇️

[ESA Science @esascience]

Mars Express has captured a blanket of dark ash creeping across the Red Planet.

It has spread hundreds of kilometres in less than 50 years.

Hello, Moon. It’s great to be back.

Here’s a taste of what the Artemis II astronauts photographed during their flight around the Moon. Check out more photos from the mission: https://t.co/rzM1P0QbOl

Incoherent light sources (like a lightbulb) can actually be coherent at very small timescales!
‣ 10⁻¹⁶s: the EM waves can be seen
‣ 10⁻¹⁴s: interference patterns visible
‣ 10⁻⁶s: light source seems incoherent

Beware the ides of March

[NASA Artemis @NASAArtemis]

Made it.

At 6:42pm ET on Jan. 17, the stacked Artemis II rocket and spacecraft reached Launch Pad 39B after a nearly 12-hour journey from the Vehicle Assembly Building at @NASAKennedy in Florida.

Starship's eleventh flight test reached every objective, providing valuable data as we prepare the next generation of Starship and Super Heavy → https://t.co/YmvmGZTV8o

[Convention on Migratory Species (CMS) @BonnConvention]

Vultures are widely misunderstood and play an irreplaceable role as nature’s cleanup crew. They prevent diseases, recycle nutrients, and even help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Yet they are disappearing at an alarming rate. 🦅

To mark International Vulture Awareness Day, André Botha, Chair of the Technical Advisory Group to the CMS Raptors MoU, joins host Munir Virani on the Talons of Hope podcast.

He shares solutions that are turning the tide and explains why these birds are the silent guardians of our ecosystems and our health.

@SlagOffTwits Too bad about Alaska and Hawaii, though.

[General Fusion @GeneralFusion]

We are plasma tuning to prepare for our next compression shot! In this process, we repeatably form plasmas in LM26 to optimize performance. #fusionenergy

Measuring wealth by how much time you spend doing physics: priceless

[Chun @satofishi]

Timelapse from Antarctica to the Arctic.

[Isar Aerospace @isaraerospace]

With this test flight, we were able to successfully gather valuable data and experience for future missions. Thanks to strict safety procedures from both Isar Aerospace and Andøya Spaceport, all personnel remained safe at all times.

@AmyPeikoff @SaveStandard Touché. The daylight contracts from both ends of the day.
