Fly me to the Moon (virtually) 🌙 Aboard the @Space_Station, #Crew11 volunteers will simulate lunar landings on a laptop, helping @NASA learn how gravitational transitions may affect decision-making and piloting. Want to learn more? nasa.gov/reference/simu…
Earth’s out here serving looks from low Earth orbit. ✨ Watch our home planet spin in the is time-lapse taken from the International @Space_Station, with flashes of the aurora dancing across the atmosphere, city lights sparkling, and parts of the ISS gliding through the frame.✨…
25 years, 288 visitors, over 23 countries, 5 international partners, and one home. The Expedition 1 crew arrived at the @Space_Station on November 2, 2000, making them the first crew to occupy the orbital laboratory. This November marks 25 years of continuous human presence…
A crewed flight around the Moon. A mission years in the making. 🌕 This week on #HWHAP, @NASA's @NASAArtemis II Flight Director Jeff Radigan walks us through the challenges, milestones, and meaning behind NASA’s first crewed Artemis mission. go.nasa.gov/4177arA
.@NASA's @Spacex Crew-10 quartet is set to discuss their mission aboard the @Space_Station. Tune in at 10:40am ET to the Crew-10 On-Orbit News Conference live from the International Space Station. For more: go.nasa.gov/3IDCacq
As I went to close the cupola shutters Tuesday night, the robotic arm backlit by an aurora caught my eye! Our robotics team on the ground was busy at work while we headed to bed.
Spoiler alert: #Crew11 is going to space! 🧑🚀 @NASA's @SpaceX Crew-11 is scheduled to launch to the International @Space_Station Thursday, July 31.
Crew-11 is scheduled to head to the @Space_Station on July 31! Our prelaunch coverage starts this Saturday, July 26, as the crew arrives at @NASAKennedy. Get the full schedule of events: nasa.gov/news-release/n…
Getting launch ready 🚀
Dragon arrives at the hangar at pad 39A in Florida ahead of its sixth flight to the @Space_Station. Falcon 9 is targeted to launch Dragon and @NASA’s Crew-11 to the orbiting laboratory no earlier than Thursday, July 31
Lots of science in store for #Crew11!
Crew-11 is headed to the @Space_Station soon, and they have big plans for science 🚀 From practicing lunar landing tactics to physiology research preparing for deep space travel, read about the studies: go.nasa.gov/3Iw6MMV
Proposals are currently being accepted from U.S. schools, museums & community youth organizations (working individually or together) to host an amateur radio contact with an astronaut aboard the @Space_Station between Jan. 1 & June 30, 2026.🧑🚀 Learn more: docs.google.com/document/d/1oA…
I snapped this photo on the @Space_Station just a few days ago. The solar arrays are not only beautiful, but an incredible display of engineering.
Even astronauts get their daily steps in 🏃♀️💪 Exercising aboard the @Space_Station helps astronauts combat space-induced bone & muscle loss. Learn about crew fitness regimens & what it takes to stay healthy in space. youtube.com/watch?v=n-0A0z…
Media are invited to hear from @NASA's @SpaceX Crew-10 during a news conference beginning at 10:40 a.m. EDT, Friday, July 25, from the International @Space_Station. go.nasa.gov/3IDCacq
Baseball brought Catherine Staggs to Houston, but a commitment to NASA’s mission keeps her there. Staggs is a contracting officer for @NASA's CLPS (Commercial Lunar Payload Services initiative, supporting @NASAArtemis. Read about her path to NASA: nasa.gov/?p=883673
July 20 is Space Exploration Day, the anniversary of the Apollo 11 Moon landing and a time to celebrate our commitment to lunar exploration. With @NASAArtemis, we'll send astronauts to the Moon and onward to Mars. go.nasa.gov/4lGqQuN
On July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin stepped onto the Moon—and with them, the world took a giant leap. That moment sparked a legacy of exploration that continues today as @NASA and its partners advance toward Artemis II and prepare for the next great frontier: Mars.
#Crew11 is due to liftoff no earlier than 12:09pm ET on Thursday, July 31. 🚀
.@NASA’s @SpaceX #Crew11 mission is due to lift off no earlier than 12:09pm ET on Thursday, July 31, to perform research, technology demonstrations, and maintenance activities aboard the orbiting lab. nasa.gov/missions/stati…
Did you know that one of NASA’s missions is to enable commercial spaceflight in low Earth orbit? One of the really cool ways we get to do that on @Space_Station is to host Private Astronaut Missions, or PAMs. This week, we bid farewell to the Ax-4 crew after their two week stay…
