#HurricaneIda from @Space_Station just before noon CDT today. If you are/have been in its path, I’m thinking of you and hoping you stay safe.

Powerful gushers of energy from seething stars can sculpt eerie-looking figures with long, flowing veils of gas and dust. One striking example is "the Ghost of Cassiopeia," located 550 light-years away: go.nasa.gov/2q8r2Zz

Things are looking up around here! 🚀
Teams have rotated the @NASA_SLS core stage – the largest part of the rocket – into a vertical position. Soon, they will lift up the core stage and lower it down into High Bay 3 to join the twin solid rocket boosters on the mobile launcher.
Made our staff’s day to hear this appreciation for our work 💕
The train yard and train have had high compliments so far this season
GIFT SHOP | Coming Soon...
Personalized plush, water bottles, and these amazing keychains!! These keychains are thanks to our local 3D printing company, @AdditiveAmerica!
I already know one of these Neuseway Bears and Oliver keychains are definitely coming home with me 👀

In 1977, Star Wars introduced the two-sun, “circumbinary” planet Tatooine — but astronomers didn’t know such solar systems existed.
🤯 Decades later, they began finding them! Our TESS mission discovered this two-sun planet in 2020: go.nasa.gov/3efsJy3

Gratitude, wonder, connection. I’m full of and motivated by these feelings on my birthday, as my first mission to space comes to an end. This orbiting laboratory is a true testament to what we can accomplish when we work together as a team. Crew-1 is ready for our ride home!
Thank you to all our contestants and congratulations to all our winners!!
We really appreciate Cameron Whitfield 🥇, Eliza Rouse🥈, Maddison Locklear 🥉, & Justin Stroud for their entries!
Come visit Cameron’s project, now on display with us until next year!
