Watching ESA astronaut @AstroSamantha during the opening ceremony was deeply moving. In a segment devoted to science, exploration, curiosity, and discovery, it felt like a reminder of the very best of humanity. A truly touching way to open the 2026 Winter Olympic Games. esa.int/Space_in_Membe… #MilanoCortina2026 #Olympics

Thank you, Mr. President @POTUS, for this opportunity. It will be an honor to serve my country under your leadership. I am also very grateful to @SecDuffy, who skillfully oversees @NASA alongside his many other responsibilities. The support from the space-loving community has been overwhelming. I am not sure how I earned the trust of so many, but I will do everything I can to live up to those expectations. To the innovators building the orbital economy, to the scientists pursuing breakthrough discoveries and to dreamers across the world eager for a return to the Moon and the grand journey beyond--these are the most exciting times since the dawn of the space age-- and I truly believe the future we have all been waiting for will soon become reality. And to the best and brightest at NASA, and to all the commercial and international partners, we have an extraordinary responsibility--but the clock is running. The journey is never easy, but it is time to inspire the world once again to achieve the near-impossible--to undertake and accomplish big, bold endeavors in space...and when we do, we will make life better here at home and challenge the next generation to go even further. NASA will never be a caretaker of history--but will forever make history. Godspeed, President Donald J. Trump, and Godspeed NASA, as America leads the greatest adventure in human history 🇺🇸

We are saddened by the passing of Jim Lovell, commander of Apollo 13 and a four-time spaceflight veteran. Lovell's life and work inspired millions. His courage under pressure helped forge our path to the Moon and beyond—a journey that continues today. go.nasa.gov/41tbrpq

Congrats to @spacex and the #NASAScience team with all mission partners. Today, we are thinking of Craig Kletzing who, with his team, came up with this missions and was its first Principal Investigator. I selected TRACERS in 2019 from @uiowa. We all miss him - proud of the team.

Liftoff of TRACERS!
