Your close personal friends, the @NASAArtemis astronauts (and Rise), can't wait to get home! In the meantime, enjoy a few new pictures from their camera roll. And watch their return with us live at nasa.gov/live.

"A breathtaking portrait of Earth, taken by Artemis II.''

Fist bump! 👊 The Artemis II crew is now under 35,000 miles from Earth. The astronauts are preparing the spacecraft for reentry and the weather is looking good for splashdown.

But wait, there's more! These newly released photos show off striking details on the far side of the Moon, like craters of various sizes and basins. See new photos here: nasa.gov/gallery/lunar-…

Artemis II is locked in 🔒 As they flew around the Moon, the Artemis II crew took turns capturing science data and taking photos out of the Orion spacecraft window to share with their team back on Earth.

Period poverty affects over 500 million young girls worldwide You can help eradicate that in Ghana by supporting our Pads Campaign to provide hygiene kits & education to 500 girls in Sogakope. MoMo: 055-858-8486 Britney Tachie gofund.me/44fe28b21 Donate, share, support !

Sky full of stars. Following a successful lunar flyby, the Artemis II astronauts captured this breathtaking photo of our galaxy, the Milky Way, on April 7, 2026.

Hey guyssss!! Donate to our pads Camapign today!

.@NASAMoonBase has landed on X. Join us as we explore, innovate, and build a sustained human presence on the Moon.

Hi fam, we’ve raised GH₵3,585 thanks to our amazing donors but we still need GH₵26,415 to reach our goal. Every donation, no matter the amount, brings us closer to supporting 500 girls with menstrual hygiene education & kits. You can donate via: gofund.me/259350be0 🙏

It’s time again for our annual Pads Campaign, which provides menstrual hygiene kits and education to schoolgirls to help them stay in school and manage their periods with dignity. This year, we aim to reach 500 girls in Sogakope, Volta Region. Please support this cause.

We're flying around the Moon. Come watch with us. Live coverage of Artemis II prelaunch activities begins Friday, March 27, when the crew arrives at @NASAKennedy. Here's the full Artemis II event schedule — keep checking back for the latest updates: go.nasa.gov/4s0lHjB

SpaceX is planning to build electromagnetic mass drivers on the Moon. These "cannon-like" launch systems would use lunar low gravity and vacuum to efficiently hurl Al satellites into deep space — without burning rocket propellant. Elon Musk has described it as a key step toward scaling Al compute far beyond Earth's energy limits, potentially reaching hundreds of terawatts or more by manufacturing satellites on the Moon and launching them at scale. A true sci-fi concept that's now on the roadmap. 🚀🌕

It takes collective action to end period poverty. Help us provide menstrual hygiene kits & education for girls who need them most. Every donation keeps a girl in school Donate, Share and Support today! 055-858-8486 (Britney) gofund.me/44fe28b21 #PadsCampaign

Ansel Adams on Mars? Some striking black-and-white images from four current NASA missions. 📸 1) A fissure in Elysium Planitia - MRO 2) A dust devil caught in Jezero Crater - Perseverance 3) Boxwork formations in Gale Crater - Curiosity 4) A channel in Arabia Terra - Odyssey

Groundsource used Gemini to analyze decades of public reports to identify over 2.6 million historical flood events from 150+ countries. It then used @GoogleMaps to determine precise geographic boundaries for each event to create a dataset focused on flash floods. That data was used to train a new model designed to help authorities predict flash floods in urban areas up to 24 hours in advance.

Google Maps 🤝 Gemini 3 Now that you can ask Maps complex questions, let’s dig into some prompts that showcase the true power of this update. 🧵

Groundsource is a new AI-powered methodology that transforms millions of public reports into a high-quality record of historical disaster data to aid crisis prediction — starting with flash floods in urban areas.
