Wohoo!!! Congratulations to the whole Europa Clipper team, what a fabulous day!!!

Someone told Dr. Gwénaël Caravaca 🔴 ⛏ I was a Hufflepuff and he made the most perfect thing for me and I love it so much. Hanging in a place of honor above my computer screen, right under the print of Paraitepuy Pass by Thomas Appéré.

These stunning views of the Red Planet are a reminder of how vast and mysterious our universe is... What are you grateful for this #Thanksgiving?

What comes after Ingenuity? We're working on a bigger, more capable helicopter. We could send it the largest canyon in the solar system, Valles Marineris, to unlock secrets of planetary evolution & explore billions of years of history together. youtube.com/watch?v=uz4GaA…

MARDI - the little camera that could! The thousands of images we have acquired with MARDI provide a lovely travelogue of our traverse through Gale!

It's been a very difficult week. My family and I are safe, and our home is still standing, but many have not been as fortunate. Please consider supporting the following families who've lost everything in the #EatonFire. Every bit helps, even if all you can give is a retweet: 🧵

Over 200 JPLers have lost everything. Every single project I work on includes at least one, most multiple. Everyone at JPL is affected, everyone is utterly heartbroken for our community. Ways you can help: giving.caltech.edu/areas-to-suppo…

This means so much to me. Thank you to the Blair Magnet Foundation for the honor and opportunity to speak. It was *wonderful* to see so many teachers who made such a different in my life last night.

This is so exciting. Some absolutely incredible detective work by members of the ARCHIVED - Curiosity Rover science team.

Recent actions by the US federal government have me really concerned about our future leadership in innovation. I wrote about it here: thehill.com/opinion/educat…

Had an amazing opportunity to attend the premier of National Geographic Documentary Films new film “Sally” tonight, and it provided some sorely needed inspiration and hope. Brave people like Tam and Sally change the world for the better. Out June 16 on Nat Geo and the next day on Disney/Hulu+ #SALLYfilm

Important Update: As part of NASA’s effort to streamline communications, this account will be archived in the coming weeks – but don't worry, my mission isn't going anywhere. For continued access to the latest Curiosity news, images, and science, please follow NASA Mars.

The last image data from NASA’s Opportunity rover was captured seven years ago today on June 9, 2018. #OTD With Oppy caught in a smothering dust storm, it doesn’t show much but noise…and couldn’t even complete a full picture frame.😢

If you're wondering why I've been crying over robots on Twitter, it's because these beloved accounts are being shuttered, and a huge joy of my job is going away 💔 Here's NASA's rationale: nasa.gov/social-media/f… ARCHIVED - Curiosity Rover ARCHIVED - NASA Voyager ARCHIVED - NASA's Perseverance Mars Rover – it was an honor.

Check out the view from up here! As the Curiosity rover continues to climb the flanks of Mt. Sharp, it has captured an extraordinarily clear panorama of Gale Crater's rim...and even the lands beyond. Details: photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA266…

So proud, so excited. Lauren is such a wonderful person, this is amazing news!!!!!!!
