Spacewalkers Complete New Solar Array Installation on Station
NASA astronauts Josh Cassada and Frank Rubio installed a new roll-out solar array on the station and watched as it unfurled during a spacewalk on Saturday, Dec. 3, 2022.

ALT The National Education Equity Lab and Stanford University are excited to invite your high school to participate in an information session about Introduction to Bioengineering. RSVP for this Thursday at 3p Eastern time. URL: https://publicate.it/p/i23zEQAyQcXW296827 The National Education Equity Lab is an education justice non-profit that aims to democratize access to college by partnering with top colleges and universities to offer actual college credit-bearing courses in teacher-led Title 1 and Title 1-eligible high school classrooms, in selected schools across the country. Scholars gain the opportunity to take actual college courses from top professors, with weekly university teaching fellow live sections, co-taught by teachers at their high schools. Scholars earn 3-widely transferable college credits and a transcript from the offering institution upon successful completion.

ALT Jupiter dominates the black background of space. The image is a composite, and shows Jupiter in enhanced color, featuring the planet’s turbulent Great Red Spot, which appears white here. The planet is striated with swirling horizontal stripes of neon turquoise, periwinkle, light pink, and cream. The stripes interact and mix at their edges like cream in coffee. Along both of the poles, the planet glows in turquoise. Bright orange auroras glow just above the planet’s surface at both poles.

ALT Jupiter dominates the frame, appearing to glow with bands of bright white, light yellow, and darker, brownish oranges. The stripes circle the planet, with one especially thick bright band across the planet’s center. A spot of glowing bright white interrupts the darker brown band about a third from the bottom of the planet. To the left of Jupiter, Europa appears as a tiny, black circle with a bright starburst erupting from its edges. The background of the image is pure black.

ALT The background of space is black. Thousands of galaxies appear all across the view. Their shapes and colors vary. Some are various shades of orange, others are white. Most stars appear blue, and are sometimes as large as more distant galaxies that appear next to them. A very bright star is just above and left of center. It has eight bright blue, long diffraction spikes. Between 4 o’clock and 6 o’clock in its spikes are several very bright galaxies. A group of three are in the middle, and two are closer to 4 o’clock. These galaxies are part of the galaxy cluster SMACS 0723, and they are warping the appearances of galaxies seen around them. Long orange arcs appear at left and right toward the center.
