We are not slowing down. 🚀 Our Artemis III mission will send four astronauts to low Earth orbit next year to test critical systems needed for future lunar landings and we’re accelerating efforts to ensure the success of Artemis IV, the first Artemis mission on the lunar surface

NASA shared space images from Mars.

The @NASAWebb telescope recently spotted stars brewing in this cosmic cauldron. This region of toil and trouble, named N159, is 161,000 light-years from Earth, in the Large Magellanic Cloud.

Expedition 75 bioprinted blood vessels, processed tumor cells, and videotaped an advanced workout session to benefit human health. Meanwhile, preparations continue for an Oct. 29 spacewalk. More...

It’s totally incredible they were able to fly this beast in from space as an unpowered glider.

Google Cloud and @NASA are collaborating to test proof-of-concept robotic assistants for future missions to the Moon and Mars. These robotic assistants are powered by models fine-tuned on @GoogleCloud edge computing and trained in @GoogleDeepMind’s MuJoCo physics engine, and are built to assist astronauts with daily logistics and critical tasks, like retrieving and preparing medical tools during an emergency.

Through powerful stellar winds, these young glittering stars at the center pushed away most of the gas from which they were born, creating this central void that offers a ghostly appearance in this Hubble image of LHA 129-N44. Credit: ESA, NASA, D. Gouliermis. 🔭

Remember that time when you spotted the remains of an exploded star that no one had identified before and Chandra followed up, revealing superheated debris? Together we helped scientists understand one of the youngest remnants in our galaxy, G306.3. We'll miss you, Swift!💜

Science operations for our Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory have now ended. With the spacecraft orbiting less than 171 miles (275 kilometers) above Earth, atmospheric drag prevents the satellite’s telescopes from steadily gazing at their cosmic targets. 🧵

As the sun sets on NASA's Swift mission, we celebrate more than 21 years of discoveries. Designed to catch gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), the universe's most powerful explosions, Swift revolutionized our understanding of these high-energy events and showed how they can illuminate everything from the births of black holes to the history of the early universe. But Swift's legacy extends far beyond gamma-ray bursts. Its rapid-response capabilities turned it one of astronomy's first responders, alerting observatories around the world to fleeting cosmic events and helping usher in the era of multimessenger astronomy. The mission leaves behind a remarkable scientific legacy and a wealth of data that will continue to enable discoveries for years to come.

Thank you Jared. No doubt you are going to Make NASA Great Again. And together, we will ensure the @NASA - @DeptofWar Partnership is stronger than ever. I’ll fly with you any day! @NASAAdmin

It was an honor to fly with @SecWar @PeteHegseth over NASA’s Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, America’s gateway to the stars. Just as we share this critical facility at the Cape, we share a common goal of American superiority in the ultimate high ground of space. Next up is America’s return to the lunar environment, with the Artemis II wet dress rehearsal underway today 🚀🇺🇸

NASA just shared some major updates on the road ahead for Artemis 🚀 2027: Artemis III tests Orion and two lunar landers in low Earth orbit. 2028: Artemis IV returns Americans to the Moon. Catch up on today's announcements in this special edition NASA Minute!

Perseverance in the Wild Martian West 🤠 Our Perseverance Mars rover snapped some photos beyond the western rim of Jezero Crater—the farthest west the rover has ever gone on the Red Planet. See what we found there:

Even galaxies need to vent. Because of a prior gravitational interaction with a neighboring galaxy, M82 undergoes super intense star formation. This image shows its "exhaust system" in action, regulating the galaxy's growth by venting gas outwards. ⬇️

🚨WATCH: NASA REVEALS THE NIGHT SKY FROM MARS — A VIEW UNLIKE EARTH’S NASA has shared a rare glimpse of the Martian night sky. Unlike Earth, Mars has a much thinner atmosphere, meaning less atmospheric scattering of light and a different view of the cosmos.

This view just hits different 🌍 @Astro_Christina and @astro_reid take a moment to look back at Earth as they continue deep into space toward the Moon.

NASA has updated the timeline for its Artemis III mission and mapped out the expected progress for SpaceX and Blue Origin's respective moon landers.

Big move, bigger mission! The Artemis III Space Launch System core stage moved to the transfer aisle at NASA Kennedy. Next up – teams will lift and integrate the massive 212-foot-rocket with the solid rocket boosters as we prepare for the next giant leap in lunar exploration.
