It's pretty quiet on the Moon...packing a music player in your #NASAMoonKit might not be such a bad idea. 🎶 The Apollo astronauts were even treated to some delightful wake-up music during their missions. apolloinrealtime.org/17/?t=1…
What's in Your #NASAMoonKit ? 🌖 Our musical journey through space approaches on Jan. 17th! Share your excitement by thinking about what you would pack for the Moon. Show us what’s in your musical suitcase with the hashtag #NASAMoonKit. Details: go.nasa.gov/39clJhP

In just a few years, we’ll send humans to the Moon, but this time to the South Pole. This data visualization shows sunlight and shadows at the South Pole over a year. Check out the craters in permanent shadow, which are so cold they contain water ice 🧊🕳️ go.nasa.gov/2WBrCPZ

#Juneteenth commemorates the day in 1865 when enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas, learned of their emancipation. In this view from space, Galveston is seen from the @Space_Station. Today we reflect on how far we've come and how much further we have to go.
