4? months into its journey to Jupiter, @EuropaClipper is getting ready to visit Mars! This Saturday, the spacecraft will use the Red Planet to perform a gravity assist – a maneuver to bend its trajectory and position. Here's how it'll happen: https://t.co/iivRwSDun4 https://t.co/VwfiBNvLDw

From space, NISAR will keep an eye on the ground. 🌍 Set to launch this spring, the powerful satellite will track tiny shifts in Earth’s land and ice surfaces, providing insights that could help efforts to mitigate risks to dams, bridges, and other critical infrastructure. https://t.co/2XiLVXVMvA

Follow the water. It's the phrase scientists searching for life outside our solar system are often guided by, since every living organism on Earth needs water to survive. SPHEREx will aid in that quest. It's scheduled to launch no earlier than Feb. 27. https://t.co/mAxmaprQhy https://t.co/SqF3ndcSFq

SPHEREx is getting ready for launch – but before it begins mapping the stars, it had to be put through intense thermal, acoustic, vibration, and electromagnetic testing at @BAESystemsInc. Go behind the scenes to see how SPHEREx fared during these critical environmental tests. https://t.co/GN0GAWN6zY

It stands for Spectro-Photometer for the History of the Universe, Epoch of Reionization and Ices Explorer... but you can just call it SPHEREx. Tune in this Wednesday, Feb. 12, at 11am PT / 2pm ET to ask your questions live: https://t.co/TAXpcN8WIT https://t.co/2Jfv9XKvxn

1 month down, 11 to go – and we’ve got a lot to look forward to in the rest of 2025 – including milestones for SPHEREx, Lunar Trailblazer, Europa Clipper, NISAR, Sentinel-6B, CADRE, and SEAQUE! Which of these get you most geeked? https://t.co/2dapeThGV1 https://t.co/sQBMAvs7b6

NASA analysis of near-Earth asteroid 2024 YR4 indicates it has >1% chance of impacting Earth on Dec. 22, 2032, which also means there's ~99% chance this asteroid will not impact. Such initial analysis will change over time as more observations are gathered https://t.co/LMFH12K9N8 https://t.co/WyXh0uUqeq

The satellite will sends radar waves to Earth that bounce back to it, capturing land shifts, monitoring the motion of glaciers and ice sheets, and tracking ecosystem changes. https://t.co/2wDoqAUUlP https://t.co/dGTAA4SQap
