All attention on @NASAVoyager 📡 Last weekend at the Deep Space Network complex in Madrid, Spain, all six antennas were arrayed to receive data from #Voyager1 . The combined receiving power will be necessary as the spacecraft travels further into interstellar space.

How much water is flowing in Earth's rivers? Enough to fill 900 million Olympic swimming pools. A NASA-led study provides new estimates of how much water is in our rivers, the rate it's flowing into the ocean, and how much this is changing over time:

Earth >> << Psyche DSOC, a tech demo on #MissionToPsyche , works so well that it has graduated from sending pre-loaded test data (remember Taters the laser cat?) to transmitting actual spacecraft telemetry:

I've been sniffing traces of methane in Gale Crater for years, but why it's there and how it behaves has puzzled scientists. A new proposal suggests that the gas may be sealed under solidified salt deposits in the Martian regolith:

New views of Jupiter's moon Io show huge lava lakes – reminiscent of obsidian here on Earth. This animation is an artist’s concept made using data from the #JunoMission .

@NASAEarth Water connects our planet Earth and Jupiter's moon Europa. It connects all life as we know it, and all cultures. Besides this poem, our spacecraft also carries representations of the word for "water" spoken in 100+ languages. Learn more & hear the words:

Everything's better with friends — including selfies! @NASA ’s Orion spacecraft captured this photo Nov. 2022. It shows off our Blue Marble’s precious water. 💧 Celebrate #EarthDay by sharing a #GlobalSelfie with us – and bonus points if it’s near water!

Sounding a little more like yourself, #Voyager1 . For the first time since November, Voyager 1 is returning useable data about the health and status of its onboard engineering systems. Next step: Enable the spacecraft to begin returning science data again:

Tomorrow is #EarthDay , and what better way to appreciate our planet than to gaze up at the sky this evening and be reminded about our place in the universe? 🌎 If you're in the Northern Hemisphere, look up in the pre-dawn hours to spot the Lyrid meteor shower at its peak.

#OTD in 2021, the world watched as the #MarsHelicopter achieved the first powered, controlled flight on another planet (and then went on to do it 71 more times). But today is more than an anniversary for JPL—it's proof that our team can and will continue to #DareMightyThings .
