We're working with @ESA to plan one of the most ambitious feats ever attempted in space—bringing a Mars sample to Earth. The Mars Sample Return campaign could help answer a question rovers alone cannot: Was there life on Mars?
Here's how we plan to do it: mars.nasa.gov/msr/

Pandora’s Cluster ✨
This #HubbleClassic image depicts a giant galaxy cluster located in the constellation Sculptor. Scientists believe that this cluster resulted from a pile-up of at least four smaller galaxy clusters over 350 million years!

CAPSTONE Forges New Path for NASA’s Future Artemis Moon Missions
NASA's CAPSTONE spacecraft has completed final maneuvers to place it in its target orbit around the Moon, refining its path in the orbit it arrived to last week.Roxana Bardan (NASA)
On the sixth day of its mission, @NASA_Orion approached the Moon, passing over several Apollo landing sites and as close to 80 miles (128 km) above the lunar surface.
Teams are preparing for Orion to enter a distant retrograde orbit of the Moon: go.nasa.gov/3V2jep1

An eclipse on the way home 📸
#OTD in 1969, Apollo 12 astronauts captured a photograph of the eclipse of the Sun on their return to Earth. The view was created when the Earth moved directly between the Sun and the Apollo 12 spacecraft.

APOD: 2022 November 21 - The Butterfly Nebula from Hubble
A different astronomy and space science related image is featured each day, along with a brief explanation.apod.nasa.gov
Stars can make beautiful patterns as they age -- sometimes similar to flowers or insects. NGC 6302, the Butterfly Nebula, is a notable example. Though its gaseous wingspan covers over 3 light-years and its estimated surface temperature exceeds 200,000 degrees C, the aging central star of NGC 6302, the featured planetary nebula, has become exceptionally hot.
