This map shows land surface temperatures across Europe, using @CopernicusEU Sentinel-3 data from 26 May 2026. 🔗esa.int/ESA_Multimedia…

The International @Space_Station was heaving with science in 2025:

That Friday feeling when you finally break away.
The @NASAArtemis Orion spacecraft is designed for deep‑space missions, and its separation sequence is a key step in that journey. Once Orion detaches, it shifts into independent flight and activates the systems that guide it through reentry and splashdown. Teams at Johnson Space Center monitor every moment, ensuring Orion performs exactly as planned as NASA prepares for future Artemis missions.

🇪🇸 This week's mission to Spain has highlighted a deepening relationship with @ESA – and an increase in Spanish leadership in the space sector.
In Madrid, I met PM @sanchezcastejon and Minister @DianaMorantR to discuss Spain’s rising role in space and Europe’s autonomy, security & competitiveness. With Minister Morant, I also signed a Memorandum of Intent on secure connectivity aimed at strengthening cooperation on Europe’s future infrastructure.
Spain is a key pillar of Europe’s space ambitions.
