Astronomy, NOW! 👀

Venus meets Jupiter on 9 June in a stunning conjunction (when planets appear close together in our sky)

#Venus (mag –4) sits just 1.6° north of #Jupiter (–1.9), low in the WNW after sunset.

Visible to the naked eye -just make sure the Sun has fully set first

Red Bull-teambaas Laurent Mekies gaf na de Grand Prix van Monaco aan dat de motor van Max Verstappen sowieso gewisseld zou worden na die race.

Komend weekend in Barcelona wordt nieuwe, verse krachtbron geïnstalleerd. #F1

Today is National Cancer Survivors Day 🎗️

Being a childhood cancer survivor has taught me resilience, gratitude, and finding joy in ordinary moments. I’ve learned that survivorship isn’t just about what you overcome, it’s also about how you live life after. I’m incredibly grateful for my team who cared for me, believed in me, and gave me hope.
Sending love to fellow survivors and to everyone who has been touched by cancer 💛

Game face ON. I love this photo my crewmate Kellie took of me as Flight Test Director on a test run during our microgravity research campaign this past week, because it really captures how gritty and locked in we get during our team operations. Game face ON, let's gooooo.

Coming soon: one of history’s most complex missions

Tune in on Tuesday, June 9, at 11am ET, to meet the astronauts flying aboard Artemis III, the mission that will test docking capabilities with commercial landers in low Earth orbit — an important step to crewed lunar landings.

A timelapse view from our @SpaceX Dragon of the spectacular southern aurora seen in yesterday’s post, a result of a recent solar event. As opposed to the previous aurora I’ve seen, this one danced and snaked its way directly below us, putting on quite a show. I am in awe of this ethereal and emotionally evocative phenomenon.
