We're taking a good look at the Sun. 😎 Why? Because its eruptions can knock out satellites, power grids and comms on Earth. MUSE, a NASA explorer we designed, will study the Sun’s corona 35x faster than before, helping unlock secrets behind solar flares, space weather & more.

One year later and still GOESing strong. 💪 A year ago, GOES-U lifted off to round out NOAA Satellites' GOES-R series. Since then, GOES-19 has been busy capturing advanced imagery and helping monitor lightning, solar flares and extreme weather.

It’s not just docking, it’s a deep space lunar tango, 240,000 miles from Earth. 💃🕺 NASA's Orion uses LiDAR, cameras and smart software to master rendezvous, proximity operations and docking (RPOD), setting the stage for missions to the Moon and Mars. lmt.co/44H2HOq
