This image dubbed the “pale blue dot” was taken by @NASAVoyager today in 1990. As the spacecraft sped toward interstellar space, it captured Earth from 3.7 billion miles (6 billion km) away. Find out 10 fast facts: go.nasa.gov/3E7eW9m

10 Things You Might Not Know About Voyager's Famous 'Pale Blue Dot' Photo
The Voyager imaging team asked for the photo to show Earth’s vulnerability — to illustrate how small, fragile and irreplaceable it is on a cosmic scale.NASA Solar System Exploration
5,300 light-years away, two stars are locked in a fiery dance. They come together every 8 years with such force that stellar material is blown away. Each meeting forms a new ring. @NASAWebb captured a century+ of this dance. go.nasa.gov/3RYZlwG

Love you to the Moon and back!
On Valentine's Day 2023, 19:00 GMT, this is 464421.5 miles
The Moon is roughly 30 times the diameter of Earth away, but because its orbit isn't perfectly circular, its distance varies from about 28-32 Earth diameters throughout a month.

A series of storms brought lots of precipitation to California, helping replenish snowpack and reservoirs.
But was it enough to reverse a decades-long decline in groundwater? It’s unlikely, according to @nasagoddard research.

Reservoirs Rise, but Groundwater Woes Remain
The water delivered by winter storms in 2022-2023 is likely insufficient to reverse the longer-term depletion of California’s groundwater.go.nasa.gov
This chart shows an overall downward trend in terrestrial water storage (dark blue).
The other lines show why this is happening – groundwater (light blue) is sharply decreasing. Data are from @nasa’s GRACE and GRACE-FO satellites.

Happy 100th #birthday to the late, great Chuck Yeager, World War II flying ace and test pilot who shattered the myth of the sound barrier in 1947. 🥳
Yeager is seen here with the Bell X-1A which he flew to a then-record speed of Mach 2.44 on December 12, 1953.
