martinezlaura+FollowAsteroids Are Zooming By—Should We Worry?NASA’s got eyes on three asteroids—one as big as a house—whizzing past Earth at insane speeds (think 16,000 to 41,000 mph!). The closest one is coming within 120,000 miles, but don’t freak out: NASA says there’s no real risk of impact. Even that 200-foot asteroid that once had a 3% chance of hitting us in 2032? Now it’s basically zero. Still, wild to think about how much space stuff is flying by! #NASA #Asteroids #SpaceNews #Science20Share
Angela Williams+FollowNASA Snubs Astronaut Photogs? 🚀NASA just revealed its Photographer of the Year winners, but none of the iconic astronaut photographers like Don Pettit were eligible! All the winning shots were taken on Earth, sparking debate about whether space photos should count. Some fans think NASA is missing out by not including those epic shots from orbit. What do you think—should space pics be allowed in the contest? #NASA #SpacePhotography #Astronauts #PhotoAwards #FandomDebate #Entertainment11Share
Jessica Hodge+FollowMars Water Mystery Totally DebunkedRemember those dark streaks on Mars everyone thought were proof of flowing water? Turns out, it was just dust all along! Decades of hype about possible Martian lakes and even alien life got totally shut down by new research. Scientists now say these streaks are just dust avalanches caused by wind and meteorite impacts—not water. Guess we’re not moving to Mars just yet, but at least NASA can explore without worrying about messing up Martian microbes! #Mars #SpaceNews #ScienceUpdate #NASA #WatercoolerMoment #Science31Share
Kristin Shaw+FollowNASA’s Space Probe Pulls Off a ComebackImagine your old car suddenly starting after years in the garage—NASA just pulled off that kind of miracle with Voyager 1! The 47-year-old space probe’s backup thrusters, which had been out of commission for decades, were revived just in time to keep it talking to Earth. This means more cosmic postcards from deep space, and a reminder: sometimes, the best fix is just flipping the right switch (even from 15 billion miles away). #SpaceWin #Voyager1 #NASA #TechRescue #LifeHacks #Business20Share
Richard Vaughan+FollowVenus’ Crust Is Way Thinner Than We ThoughtTurns out Venus isn’t just a hot mess—it’s got a surprisingly thin crust that’s constantly breaking off or melting into the planet’s insides. Scientists thought Venus was geologically boring, but new NASA research says its crust is basically recycling itself, possibly fueling wild volcanic eruptions. Earth has moving plates, but Venus? It’s got its own dramatic way of keeping things spicy. Can’t wait for those new missions to spill even more secrets! #Venus #NASA #SpaceNews #PlanetaryScience #Volcanoes #Science100Share
Jerry Clark+FollowVoyager 1’s Comeback: Spacecraft Lifehack!Imagine your old phone suddenly working after 20 years in a drawer—that’s basically what NASA just pulled off with Voyager 1! The team fixed its thrusters from 15 billion miles away, just in time before a long communication blackout. The drama? If they hadn’t, we might’ve lost touch with humanity’s farthest explorer. Sometimes, a little creative troubleshooting keeps even the oldest tech running strong. Space engineers: the ultimate remote IT support! #Voyager1 #SpaceWin #TechRescue #NASA #ScienceChatter #Business80Share
Vincent Perry+FollowNASA's Spacecraft Pulls Off a ComebackImagine your old car suddenly roaring back to life after 20 years in the garage! That’s basically what NASA just did with Voyager 1’s backup thrusters, which hadn’t been used since 2004. Why does it matter? Without working thrusters, Voyager 1 would lose its cosmic Wi-Fi and stop phoning home after nearly 50 years. NASA’s last-minute fix keeps the ultimate space road trip alive, proving sometimes a backup plan is worth its weight in gold (or rocket fuel). #NASA #Voyager1 #SpaceInnovation #EngineeringWin #Science #Business304Share
Jennifer Reyes+FollowVoyager 1’s Comeback: Spacecraft DIY WinNASA just pulled off a space-age lifehack: they revived Voyager 1’s old thrusters, which were thought to be toast since 2004. Why does this matter? If the backup thrusters failed, Voyager 1—our most distant cosmic messenger—could’ve lost touch with Earth for good. The fix means this 1970s probe can keep phoning home, even as Earth’s big space antenna goes in for repairs. Proof that sometimes, even in space, a little troubleshooting goes a long way! #SpaceWin #Voyager1 #NASA #Innovation #Lifehacks #Business30Share
Richard Vaughan+FollowUranus Just Got Way More InterestingNASA just pulled off a cosmic sneak peek into Uranus, and wow—turns out this icy giant has 13 rings and a super gassy atmosphere! Thanks to a rare alignment, scientists used starlight flickers to measure everything from Uranus’ temperature to its swirling, stormy layers. The planet’s basically a giant ball of hydrogen, helium, and mystery, and this new data could totally change how we explore it in the future. Can you imagine what else is hiding out there? #NASA #Uranus #SpaceDiscovery #ScienceNews #Astronomy #Science15734Share
Zachary Gutierrez+FollowThe Moon’s Got a Secret Hot Side!Did you know the side of the Moon we see is actually warmer and more active deep down than the far side? NASA’s latest gravity map shows the nearside’s mantle is softer and up to 200°C hotter, probably thanks to ancient radioactive elements. This explains why one side looks so different—and it’s a game-changer for future Moon missions. Who knew our lunar neighbor was hiding such a wild secret? #MoonMystery #SpaceScience #LunarExploration #NASA #ScienceNews #Science41Share
