From space to the rink, Go Habs Go! 🔵⚪🔴 Starting tonight, all Canadian eyes are on the cities of Buffalo and Montreal as the Montreal Canadiens kick off the second round of the NHL playoffs against the Sabres.

Black holes aren't vacuums or portals; they're dense matter packed into tiny spaces. Their gravity is so strong even light can't escape them. Since they're invisible, scientists study them by observing their impact on nearby stars and galaxies. 🌌🕳️ 📷: NASA

May the 4th be with you! 🌌✨ Looking at this breathtaking solar eclipse captured from the far side of the Moon during the Artemis II mission, it’s easy to see why NASA astronaut Victor Glover said “We just went sci-fi!” during the lunar flyby. 📷: NASA

While in space on Artemis II, CSA astronaut Jeremy Hansen recorded a special message for His Majesty King Charles III.

Satellites support some of Canada’s most important economic sectors, keeping our country moving, growing, and thriving.

Tonight’s Full Moon is known as the Flower Moon, a name that celebrates the vibrant spring life waking up. 🌕 We might be a little jealous of the Artemis II views of the lunar far side, but the near side still holds its magic. 📷: NASA

One year ago, the federal government set out a plan with clear priorities: bring down costs, build one Canadian economy, protect our sovereignty, and strengthen partnerships with reliable partners. We’re making progress and staying focused on delivering for Canadians.

Major throwback! 🚨 25 years ago, a robotic "handshake in space" happened. 🤝🦾 Canadian Space Agency astronaut Chris Hadfield used the original Canadarm to hand over a launch cradle, the frame used to transport the new hardware to orbit, to the brand-new Canadarm2. 📷: NASA
