We had a very good feeling about this.

May the 4th be with you, America.

Happy #NationalSpaceDay ! Let's celebrate the dreamers and pioneers who inspired us to understand the universe. We're proud to contribute to this mission, harnessing the power of space for the benefit of Earth.

We teased you earlier this week, but we can now reveal that we are proudly displaying a BE-3U engine in our “Dare to Explore” exhibit. We are thrilled to partner with @BlueOrigin to display the engine that along with Blue’s BE-4 is bringing the rumble back to the Rocket City!

Estes and SpaceX have collaborated to create a highly accurate 1:100 scale flying model of the remarkable Falcon 9 rocket topped with a Dragon Crew spacecraft.

I have been in space for 50+ days now. It has been an amazing experience so far. I have so many highlights. One of the highlights was getting a video of the eclipse. It was eerily beautiful, and what an opportunity to see it from the International Space Station!

Imagine a computer chip fails in your 1977 vehicle. Now imagine it's in interstellar space, 15 billion miles away. NASA's Voyager probe just got fixed by this team of brilliant software mechanics.

It’s okay if you don’t feel sparkly today. It's cool if you're not feeling it. Step back for a bit. There’s just one problem.

You already sparkle. Maybe you don’t see it, but others do. You belong, just like every star in this star cluster belongs.

Flame on Earth vs flame in microgravity. 🕯️ On Earth, gravity-driven buoyant convection causes a candle flame to be teardrop-shaped & carries soot to the tip, which makes it yellow. In microgravity, where convective flows are absent, the flame is spherical, soot-free & blue.

.UF IFAS Solutions' Dr. Rob Ferl will be the first NASA-funded academic researcher to conduct an experiment as a crew member on Blue Origin's upcoming #NewShepard mission. His journey will pave the way for more science experiments — and Gators — in space. 🚀 🌱

It’s been a month now since I left the International International Space Station.

One of the very last things that I did on undock day, was film a tour of the Space Station. It is as much a keepsake for me as it is a way for me to share the wonder of the International Space Station with you.…

The #Eclipse was absolutely stunning. Here's a composite with all my images. Couldn't have asked for better #mowx weather in #Missouri .

Also got to meet Smarter Every Day in southern MO. Photos w/ Sony a6600 on tripod at 350mm, f/8 (except for totality), using a Celestron filter.
