The Eta Aquarids meteor shower peaks during the early morning of May 6 (your local time). The Moon sets by around 3 a.m., leaving dark skies until dawn for ideal viewing conditions. Seeing 10-20 meteors per hour is common for the Northern Hemisphere. https://t.co/KrCtD30SmQ https://t.co/UjUFkMkUfd

NASA's #JunoMission gets under Io's skin: New data from our Jovian orbiter reveals volcanic action on Jupiter's moon Io (seen here in infrared) and also sheds light on the fierce winds and cyclones of Jupiter's atmosphere. https://t.co/kmKvWzEhaf https://t.co/Qcm2LPUUA5

NASA’s #DragonflyMission, which will send a rotorcraft to explore Saturn's moon Titan, has passed its Critical Design Review, meaning its mission plans have been approved and the team can now turn its attention to the construction of the spacecraft itself https://t.co/c93NXZqlZy https://t.co/MptCeUTkl3

NASA has named nine finalists in the Power to Explore Challenge. Contestants were asked to explore how NASA has powered some of its most famous science missions, and to dream up how their own personal “superpowers” would energize their own mission. https://t.co/THOVRDe3B1 https://t.co/Ntbu0FWKDG
