Thirty years ago, NASA's Galileo mission collected the images for this collage of Jupiter and its four largest moons, shown to scale. Our Juno mission continues its exploration of the giant planet today, and our Europa Clipper spacecraft is now en route to the Jovian system. 1/2

El pulso de la red ferroviaria española.

He animado un mapa con los más de 7.500 trenes programados para un jueves cualquiera, minuto a minuto y siguiendo la vía real.

Algunos datos interesantes...

Orbiting over wavy green auroras! Moments like these are some of the most surreal in spaceflight. What a view!

Photo finish! 🏁📸

On June 14, Perseverance completed a Martian “marathon” by surpassing 26.2 miles (42.195 kilometers) of travel. The day before, NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter snapped this view of the rover and its tracks from space.

The Phantom Space CEO finding me is definitely something I was not expecting lol

For those curious, Phantom Space shares LC-13 with Vaya Space. Phantom Space will launch their Daytona rocket, while Vaya will launch their Dauntless rocket.

It previously launched Atlas-Agena and SM-65 Atlas rockets before being converted into two landing zones for SpaceX. SpaceX’s lease expired in July 2025, and they now only operate LZ-2 for Falcon Heavy launches.

Smile! Tomorrow is the Northern Hemisphere’s summer solstice! 😎☀️

This “sunny smile” is made of coronal holes — darker, cooler regions on the Sun where solar material escapes to space at incredible speeds. 🕳️

More on coronal holes in this episode of NASA’s Illuminate.👇

@tnsc_JAXA Parabéns! Gostei muito de ver a chama dos motores quase transparente, com os diamantes perfeitamente visíveis. Muito limpo, belo lançamento.

Nine years ago today my colleagues and i shot what likely remains the highest resolution ground based image of Saturn ever taken.

We used the 1m F/17 Cassegrain telescope at Pic du Midi Observatory nestled almost 10,000ft altitude in the French Pyrenees.

Many rarely seen details were captured, such as the multiple fine ringlets within the C-ring. The narrow Encke division was captured around the entire ring system. This division is only 200 miles wide spanning less than 0.1 arc seconds in angular width.

Atop the globe of the planet the famous hexagon shaped feature is clearly seen - a fast moving jet stream that encircles the polar region.

Saturn's rings will not appear this open again until 2031 - perhaps by which time an even better ground based image will have been taken!

Planetary explorers, freewheeling to the yardang unit!

Yardangs are wind-carved hills, seen here in the distance, and they're the next target of exploration for Curiosity. The latest science team update has more about the journey ahead: https://t.co/C6jcN8hFYR

@vismaleaseabike And he is happy today too, at Paris-Roubaix 2026. Grande Final, parabéns.

@elonmusk Thank you, @elonmusk - the four of us glimpsed the red hues of Mars far in the distance as the sun slipped behind the Moon and there was zero doubt in our minds that the creative genius of our greatest minds will have us there very soon. LETS GO

Europe escaped the Dark Ages by kicking the church out of government. Now we're diving straight back in by letting mosques run the show. What took four centuries to fix, we're undoing in twenty. Funny how the road to hell is paved with tolerance.

What a view. From our new free flying camera — deployed on yesterday’s New Shepard mission. (The “bubble” is the seam between two 180 degree lenses.)
