Today’s the longest day of the year and you can thank Earth’s tilt for the extra sunshine. The Northern Hemisphere is soaking up max daylight during the summer solstice. Enjoy it while it lasts!: tumblr.com/nasa/786887436…

The Sun unleashed an X1.9-class solar flare on June 19, captured by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory. While Earth’s atmosphere blocks harmful radiation like this, strong flares can still disrupt GPS and communications. go.nasa.gov/4k4bTB8

Habitability of a planet is just about being the right distance from a star. New research shows how a planet’s spin, tilt and orbit all line up to be suitable for land-based lifeforms to thrive. It’s a delicate dance and Earth nailed it!: science.nasa.gov/blogs/earth-sc…

This is an eclipsing binary, a pair of stars that orbit each other, blocking each other's light as they pass. Thanks to citizen scientists, over 10,000 of these rare systems have been found and could help us gain insight on star formation and the search for exoplanets. Learn

Radio waves got us this far. Lasers are what’s next. When #Artemis II launches, NASA will demo laser communications capabilities from the Moon, beaming back high-def video and science data at record speeds. go.nasa.gov/3TjXjKL

📣Discovery alert! One of NASA's planetary defense telescopes first observed an interstellar comet passing through our solar system. The comet is the third object we've found that has come from outside our solar system. It poses no threat to Earth. science.nasa.gov/blogs/planetar…

This #4thofJuly, the fireworks don’t stop at Earth’s atmosphere. Let's turn our eyes to the cosmos for some real stellar sparklers. Happy Independence Day!

There’s a cosmic tourist in our solar system. Meet 3I/ATLAS: a newly discovered interstellar comet flying in from deep space. It’ll buzz closest to the Sun this October just inside Mars' orbit. It poses no threat to Earth. science.nasa.gov/blogs/planetar…

What’s up for July, skywatchers! This month, Venus will brighten your early mornings and Mars will shine bright in the evenings. Plus, search for the “eagle” constellation high in the night sky. More skywatching tips: go.nasa.gov/whatsup

The #LucyMission team has released new images from its flyby of asteroid Donaldjohanson, a rough, cratered, peanut-shaped relic of the early solar system. This successful pass was a dress rehearsal for Lucy’s big mission: visiting the Jupiter Trojans. go.nasa.gov/40yncKI
