Congratulations to NASA and the crew of Artemis II. A lot of effort over five Administrations and an ending with a picture perfect splashdown… Reid, Victor, Christina & Jeremy are the best and together even better! Onward & Upward!

This is one of the greatest astronaut crews of all time. Hard to compare to historical greats like Gemini 8, Apollo 13, Soyuz T-13, or STS-31. But certainly Wiseman, Glover, Koch, and Hansen are setting a freaking high bar for the Artemis era.

@united Wanted to give a huge shoutout to the cabin crew of Friday's UA 539 from FLL to SFO. They went above and beyond to help my 87 year old mom move cross country. Thank you thank you.

What a privilege to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the Battle of the Bulge—when American soldiers, alongside the people of Belgium and Luxembourg, held back Hitler’s final assault. May the courage and the unity that our Greatest Generation showed here always guide us.

What a marvel of international cooperation, where floating explorers from around the world unlock remarkable new science and innovation—on the most sophisticated microgravity laboratory in the universe.

Today marks 24 years that @NASA and its partners have maintained a permanent human presence in space. To put this in perspective, this means that anyone under the age of 24 has never lived a day without humans continuously living in space. After more than a quarter of a century of operations, the space station continues to serve as a world-class laboratory, experiencing many firsts, scientific breakthroughs, and improving life on our home planet every day. – Dana Weigel, Station Program Manager

Wishing a very happy birthday to NASA Administrator @SenBillNelson! In this 1985 photo, he gives a thumbs up from inside a personal rescue sphere (PRS) as part of his training for STS-61C. The PRS, just 34 inches in diameter, was used to evaluate his reaction to close quarters.

Some may say that unity in divided times is an impossible dream. But what was landing on the Moon? Space has the power to bring us together, just as it has before. Let the 55th anniversary of #Apollo11 be a time for hope.

How is NASA a climate agency? 🌎 We use dozens of satellites—and 60+ years of observing Earth—to provide an invaluable and comprehensive look at our fragile home. The right data is a superpower. It can help people understand the climate challenges we face, then take action.

In 1968, during Apollo 8, Bill Anders offered to humanity among the deepest of gifts an astronaut can give. He traveled to the threshold of the Moon and helped all of us see something else: ourselves. He embodied the lessons and the purpose of exploration. We will miss him.

Tigers, jaguars, and elephants need room to roam—and with @NASAEarth satellite data, researchers can keep an eye on their changing habitats. Here's how NASA and our partners are helping protect three of Earth's most iconic species: go.nasa.gov/3UHf8Vs

When great nations work together, we extend our reach into the stars. Today, @POTUS and @kishida230 announced the next chapter in the U.S.-Japan lunar partnership. Together, our astronauts will cover ground we’ve never covered before.
