#JHUAPL has completed the Sun Coronal Ejection Tracker (SunCET) telescope and shipped it to @LASPatCU! 🔭☀️
In October 2025, SunCET plans to capture the first images of coronal mass ejections from their beginnings through the Sun's atmosphere. https://t.co/pqc2hVkEL9

On Friday, the sun put on a dazzling show for us. My friend @TheVastReaches and I worked hard over the last 5 days to produce this incredibly detailed 140 megapixel image to illustrate how wonderfully dynamic and beautiful our star can be. Make sure you zoom in!
Happy #SunDay! This week’s space weather report includes 3 notable solar flares, 26 coronal mass ejections, and no geomagnetic storms. This video of the Sun from NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory includes several bright coronal loops and an exciting eruption around 90 seconds in.
Another flawless mission from Launch Complex 2 🙌
Thanks to our mission partners @capellaspace, @NASA_Wallops, and @Virginia_Space for helping us make reliable and responsive launch from the Eastern Shore a reality.
Launch readiness review complete and we are GO for launch tomorrow for @capellaspace for our second mission from Launch Complex 2!
Stronger Together launch:
Mar 11, ET | 6pm
Mar 11, UTC | 11pm
Mar 11, PT | 3pm
Mar 11, MT | 4pm
Mar 12, NZDT | 12pm
NASA names Nicola Fox, current director of its heliophysics division, as its new associate administrator of science, effective immediately. She succeeds Thomas Zurbuchen, who stepped down at the end of last year. https://t.co/5ZTfWSZHk3
Tomorrow, 1/24, is the day! We couldn’t be more excited to see @RocketLab's Electron rocket launch from Virginia Space’s Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport. A link to the livestream is available here: https://t.co/PgVJ9XhF2P

NASA has selected the Thermal Plasma Sensor (TPS) and the Near Earth Magnetometer Instrument in a Small Integrated System (NEMISIS) as the final two investigations for the GDC mission. Learn more https://t.co/DWcwd1UB94
After 32 launches from LC-1 in New Zealand, Electron will be flying from a new home today. We can’t wait to see Electron launch from @Virginia_Space’s Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport at @NASA_Wallops
It’s EZIE!
The Electrojet Zeeman Imaging Explorer (EZIE) has passed a key developmental milestone, moving it on to the construction phase. EZIE's three CubeSats will study auroral electrojets, intense electrical currents in Earth’s atmosphere.

Congrats to the #CAPSTONE team for a successful launch this morning! The spacecraft will explore a unique lunar elliptical orbit, the same orbit planned for @NASA_Gateway – a multipurpose outpost for long-term lunar missions as part of the @NASAArtemis program.
History made ✅
The 1st of 3 @NASA scientific rockets has successfully launched from @ela_space Arnhem Space Centre in the NT.
It’s Australia’s 1st commercial launch & NASA’s 1st from a commercial facility outside the US.
This is a milestone moment for our 🇦🇺 space sector 🚀
That’s one for sounding rockets! 🚀
A sounding rocket launched from Svalbard, Norway, on May 11 carrying the Endurance mission, which hopes to explore why Earth supports life when others planets like Mars and Venus don’t. https://t.co/avUz6UP2ig
