Another year of #NASAHERC has crossed the finish line! 🏁

As we recap the 30th annual #RoverChallenge , we want to thank you for following along this weekend and supporting this #ArtemisGeneration of future scientists, engineers, and explorers. We hope to see you back next year!

SLS has arrived in the Northeast!

Over the next few days, our team will visit some of the small businesses that play a huge role in the NASA Artemis campaign as they continue to work toward future crewed missions.

Welcome to the #Artemis Accords, Sweden 🇸🇪

Sweden became the 38th country to commit to peaceful exploration of deep space, the Moon, and beyond. Välkommen! go.nasa.gov/49z8Ag0

The payload adapter test article has reached a milestone as it prepares for testing at NASA Marshall.

The adapter, an evolution from the Orion stage adapter, will be part of the SLS Block 1B configuration and will make its debut on the #Artemis IV mission.

Welcome to the #Artemis Accords, Switzerland 🇨🇭

With their addition, Switzerland becomes the 37th country to commit to peaceful exploration of space as we look ahead to the Moon and beyond. go.nasa.gov/3UiPfev

For astronauts venturing to the Moon and beyond, dust can prove to be a hazard.

NASA's Kennedy Space Center is tackling this challenge with EDS technology which can electrically lift and remove dust from a variety of surfaces.

New Orion pics👀✨

At NASA's Kennedy Space Center, teams moved the #Artemis II stack into a vacuum chamber, where it will undergo electromagnetic compatibility and interference testing to confirm Orion can safely fly through harsh electric fields.

Rockets flew high during Volley 2 at #StudentLaunch 2024!

Tune into our livestream to hear from the teams of middle school, high school, and college students competing today >> facebook.com/share/v/MnYz3P…

The universal stage adapter will debut during #Artemis IV and will connect Orion Spacecraft to the exploration upper stage on future SLS rockets in the Block 1B configuration.
