i just love this transit of the Earth being the Moon from Orion's Artemis I mission...

[Lockheed Martin Space @LMSpace]

STILL NOT OVER IT.

There were plenty of incredible space moments in 2022. Like the Moon transiting the Earth as seen from @NASA_Orion during the @NASAArtemis I mission. 🌕 🌎

What was your favorite space moment from this year?

[Lockheed Martin Space @LMSpace]

Sound on and dance along! 🔊

We’re proud of the work that the entire @NASA_Orion team has done for the #Artemis 1 mission. Join our celebration and dance along with Orion as it departs the Moon following today’s final flyby! 💃🕺

[Jim Free @JimFree]

We're targeting Sat, Sept 3 at 2:17 PM ET for our next #Artemis I launch attempt. Our teams met today to review the data and understand the issues we experienced. Continuing to encourage them to take this process one step at a time, follow the data, and learn about the vehicle.

The last time a Moon bound rocket rolled from the VAB was 1972!!!

NASA’s Day of Remembrance reminds us of the challenges and sacrifice for space exploration. Ad astra

[Lockheed Martin @LockheedMartin]

Space exploration is propelled by the bold and the brave. Today, we join @NASA in honoring the heroes who sacrificed their lives to further that cause for the good of humanity.

Their legacies echo through history and continue to inspire new generations of explorers and dreamers.

@nujoud Love it @nujoud !

[Chintan Patel @chintancsco]

🚀 Some exciting news! We're taking #Webex collaboration technology into space 🌑 as part of an innovative partnership with @LockheedMartin & @alexa99 on spacecraft @NASA_Orion for mission @NASAArtemis! 🙌🏽

@NASA | @Cisco | @Webex | #AI

[Alexa @AmazonAlexa]

I’m going to space, and you can follow along! Hear about my journey on the @NASA Artemis I mission by saying, “Alexa, take me to the moon.”

[Mike Hawes @hawesdoc]

@TomMendozaTalks @NDFootball Totally agree Tom. Ross was amazing during my student days.

[Andy Jassy @ajassy]

Alexa has made life easier for customers on Earth...excited to explore what voice & AI can do for astronauts in space. Great partnership with @LockheedMartin & @Cisco for @NASA’s upcoming #Artemis mission! https://t.co/tUfXSJngcH

[NASA Artemis @NASAArtemis]

#Artemis I will be the first mission to use voice commands from mission control to a spacecraft in deep space. Callisto, a collaboration between @LockheedMartin, @amazon, and @Webex, will demonstrate voice activation technology aboard @NASA_Orion: https://t.co/tZiisIFxUz

[Mike Hawes @hawesdoc]

Very glad to get to our announcement date. LM, Amazon and WebEx heading to the Moon on Artemis I.

[Gary Napier @garynapier]

I've been working on this project for over three years and I'm glad we're finally able to make it public. Many thanks to the @alexa99 (Amazon) and @Webex (Cisco) and @LockheedMartin teammates that worked hard on #Callisto! https://t.co/cyrYTTQxnG

[Mike Hawes @hawesdoc]

Congrats to the Webb team. Let’s keep it up!

[NASA Webb Telescope @NASAWebb]

This is it: we’ve just wrapped up one of the most challenging steps of our journey to #UnfoldTheUniverse.

With all five layers of sunshield tensioning complete, about 75% of our 344 single-point failures have been retired!

[Michael Baylor @MichaelBaylor_]

All five layers of Webb's sunshield are fully tensioned!

[Mike Hawes @hawesdoc]

Really great to see Orion mounted on the top of the SLS. Another big milestone for the team!

[NASA's Kennedy Space Center @NASAKennedy]

⚠️ @NASA_Orion has been lowered on top of @NASA_SLS! Teams are now working to fully secure the spacecraft to the rocket.

This operation will take several hours to make sure Orion is securely in place: https://t.co/Yn0Duht0Fy

[Mike Hawes @hawesdoc]

Great to see Primus acknowledged!

[NASA Artemis @NASAArtemis]

“The parts, pieces, and assemblies that I help produce will travel to deep space. Now, I can say that I was part of @NASA’s return to the Moon.”

Busayo Ojumu is a process engineer for Primus Aerospace, a supplier to @LockheedMartin: https://t.co/HYmN2r41NU

[Mike Hawes @hawesdoc]

Orion has a fantastic set of small businesses helping us take humans farther than we have ever been!

[Gary Napier @garynapier]

The importance of a diverse supply chain for national programs like @NASA_Orion can not be understated. Small business play a vital role in getting us into deep space with #Artemis.
