- Hello Twitterverse! ✨ I’m Dr. Nicky Fox & I have one of the best jobs on the planet — Being the Head of #NASAScience! Follow this new account where myself & future @NASA Science leaders will share updates on the science we’re doing to understand our planet, the Moon, & beyond.
- Given the interest, I’m sharing NASA selected Mark McInerney director of UAP research. As we continue to digest the study team’s report and findings, please treat him with respect in this pivotal role to help us better scientifically understand UAP. More:
- What’s next for @NASAWebb in year 2? A recorded-breaking 1,600 proposals were submitted by more than 5,450 scientists from 52 countries for #Webb’s next series of cosmic adventures. Explore @SpaceTelescope’s selection process and how they meticulously evaluate Webb’s proposals to
- Following a senior review and feedback from a diverse set of stakeholders, @NASA will continue the @NASANewHorizons mission focus on multidisciplinary science. Its extended operations will continue until the spacecraft exits the Kuiper Belt, expected in 2028-2029. More:
- Using data from @NASASolarSystem’s Cassini mission, an international team of scientists have discovered phosphorus — a key chemical element for life — in icy grains ejected from Saturn’s ocean moon, Enceladus. More: go.nasa.gov/43HaicW
GIF- Psyche mission engineers are working to determine the cause of a recent decrease in fuel pressure in the spacecraft propulsion system. Meanwhile, the mission team will defer the spacecraft’s thrusting until at least mid-June before the spacecraft would see any effect on its
- Scientists have discovered that asteroid Bennu came from a world that had both the conditions and building blocks of life. 🌟 Samples of the asteroid collected by the #OSIRISREx spacecraft in 2020 had brines and carbon-based molecules! More: go.nasa.gov/4hDrLtD
- Congrats to the #DARTMission team for receiving the Space Achievement Award last night at #SpaceSymposium! Thanks to their commitment to #PlanetaryDefense, this team added a new innovative technique to our tool belt in protecting our planet!
- NASA is embarking on one of the most difficult missions humanity has ever undertaken: bringing samples from another planet to study on Earth. To maximize the probability of success, NASA will convene a Mars Sample Return mission independent review board: go.nasa.gov/3GH88kb
- Happy Independence Day! Celebrate #FourthofJuly with the stunning hues of red, white, and blue seen in this @NASAHubble image of a supernova remnant. This celestial beauty is located in the Large Magellanic Cloud, a nearby dwarf galaxy to our Milky Way: go.nasa.gov/4eS8Zhh
- Congratulations @esa for a successful launch of the Euclid mission! By studying the ‘dark side’ of our universe, Euclid is not only paving the way for @NASARoman, it is igniting a new golden age of survey astronomy that will help us understand our universe’s history and structure
