Webb's mirrors were built to withstand micrometeoroids, which are unavoidable in space. In May, a dust-sized hit was larger than tested for. After careful analysis, we've found it to be a rare statistical event. Webb’s optical performance remains twice as good as requirements. ⬇️ #JamesWebb
These women computers at the Muroc Flight Test Unit (now @NASAArmstrong) took advantage of a rare snowy day in California #OTD in 1949. ☃️ Their work: doing laborious calculations from long strips of data recorded by onboard aircraft instruments. @WomenNASA #AviationHistoryMonth #NASAhistory

Two planets orbit a dim star 81 light-years away. The larger planet is near the habitable zone and is probably tidally locked (one side always faces the star). The most temperate region may be where the two sides meet. #MondayMotivation: Find your light. exoplanets.nasa.gov/eyes-on-ex… #NASAExoplanets

In a remarkable feat of sharp shooting 10 years ago today, a powerful camera aboard the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter captured @MarsCuriosity in the act of descending to the surface beneath its parachute. go.nasa.gov/3SGK0Tl #NASAMarsnitter.net/NASAMars/status/155…
NASA's Curiosity rover and its parachute were spotted by NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter as Curiosity descended to the surface on Aug. 5 PDT (Aug. 6 EDT).
A ridge line, perhaps marking the path of an ancient, inverted channel, rises among dunes in this view from Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. The area shown is about half a mile (about a kilometer) across. Details: go.nasa.gov/3oOAboy #NASAMarsnitter.net/NASAMars/status/155…
This image acquired on March 28, 2022 by NASAs Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter shows a ridge standing prominently in this scene, left behind as the surroundings were eroded, perhaps marking inverted erosion of an ancient fluvial channel.
How it started / how it's going Left: one of @MarsCuriosity's first images, taken 10 years ago, showing the flat landing area in Gale Crater, with Mt. Sharp in the distance.
