An open horizon, with so much to explore. Can’t wait to get going.

🔴 Mars is in sight! Get the final #CountdownToMars play-by-play from @NASAPersevere
The hardware that got me to Mars has done its job, so it’s bye-bye to the cruise stage.

Tatooine is in a galaxy far, far away, but we have worlds with double suns here, too! ☀️☀️ Astronomers have found that about half of the stars in our Milky Way galaxy are pairs — not single stars like our Sun. #MayThe4thBeWithYou
The fantastical planets in #StarWars preceded our discovery of real planets outside our solar system...but the science fiction isn't far from real science.
Meet eight real exoplanets like those in a galaxy far, far away. #MayThe4thBeWithYou

That’s no moon…
Oh wait, yes it is!
George Lucas wanted the Death Star to look like a moon. But the uncanny resemblance to Saturn’s moon Mimas is only a coincidence. @NASAVoyager took the first detailed image of Mimas 3 years *after* Star Wars came out!
