We love this picture Orion snapped of us, @NASAMoon. 🥰

Happy #ValentinesDay!

Hey, @NASAOcean!

Can you believe it’s already been about two months since SWOT launched? We can’t wait for it to help us get to know you better. 💙

A @NASASpinoff technology called FINDER has been deployed to aid first responders after the devastating earthquakes in Turkey and Syria. This technology helps rescue teams locate people trapped in rubble. go.nasa.gov/3I4uj3y

Earth is a tiny dot from 3.7 million miles away. Imagine looking for worlds *trillions* of miles away!
You look great, btw💖

"... From this distant vantage point, the Earth might not seem of any particular interest. But for us, it's different. Consider again that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives ... on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam."

Psst, @NASAEarth, you're the best! We've discovered 5,250 exoplanets and not a single one is exactly like Earth, with all your delicious oxygen. Happy #ValentinesDay!💙🌎

It’s spring on Mars, and love – make that ozone – is in the air! In this image from our MAVEN orbiter, the magenta color indicates the presence of ozone, which warms the region and causes the dynamic weather visible in the clouds. Details: bit.ly/417OGWz

I can "feel" the oddly near horizon. I feel like I can smell the iron fines from the airlock where I suited up. The radiation exposure starts adding up immediately, but it would still be amazing to see.

Hi there NASA, could you please confirm if the moon is in fact haunted.





That’s home. That’s us. 🌎

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

Star-crossed lovers❤️‍🔥
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.

Happy #ValentinesDay from Venus – the planet named for the goddess of love! 💖

Hubble captured this image in ultraviolet light back in 1995. Venus is the hottest planet in our solar system, with surface temperatures at about 900 degrees Fahrenheit! More: go.nasa.gov/3E7r36j

We love planets (like the 5,250 worlds discovered beyond our solar system). So, when disaster strikes our beloved home, we're proud to see @nasa tools at work. See how @nasa is helping the earthquake response in Turkey and Syria. nasa.gov/feature/nasa-s-satell…

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.

Full story: go.nasa.gov/3lo9nwK 🌧️ 💧
#NASAEarth



These #Landsat images show how the rain replenished the two largest reservoirs in California: Shasta Lake and Lake Oroville.

However, the precipitation is likely insufficient to reverse the long-term groundwater depletion according to research by @nasagoddard scientists.
#NASAEarth



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.

The Hubble Traveling Exhibit is now open at the INFINITY Science Center in Pearlington, Mississippi – marking the exhibit's 41st stop!

Featuring cosmic images and astronaut tools, the exhibit immerses visitors in the magnificence of the Hubble mission: go.nasa.gov/3jW1GgU

How did you guys miss Colorado! I would so attend the exhibit if you brought to Colorado! And I'd bring friends...

This would be great as an immersive experience like those arts ones, btw.



The famous Pillars of Creation are just a tiny part of the Eagle Nebula. They're both beautiful and hold clues to our universe.
