How will future astronauts find water on the Moon? This small satellite, called #LunarTrailblazer, will help determine the amount, location, and form of water on the Moon. It recently passed a big milestone on its path to launch: https://t.co/XS4o7PRtTJ https://t.co/BnB5qQJAOr

Another problem solved beyond the heliosphere ? The @NASAVoyager team has mitigated an issue with Voyager 1's thruster's, which keep the spacecraft pointed at and able to communicate with Earth. The solution required some creative engineering: https://t.co/zTc8NE3CbS

Jupiter has the harshest radiation environment in our solar system. To better understand how that environment works, scientists on the #JunoMission developed the first complete 3D radiation map of the Jupiter system. https://t.co/Y8eClIIrIA https://t.co/3zMYs5e3Bs

Today is a kind of special day. 💛 46 years ago, I launched from Cape Canaveral and began my mission, which was originally just 4 years and only included flybys of Jupiter and Saturn. My, oh my, what we've accomplished since then. -V2 https://t.co/V6vmKdDkgq

From airbags to jetpacks, JPL engineers have been safely landing heavy spacecraft on Mars for nearly five decades. 12 years ago, @MarsCuriosity was the first to use the sky crane maneuver, a daring new technology that changed the way NASA explores Mars. https://t.co/rw9E2onJ6k https://t.co/eIazPd5oBx
