Things behave a bit differently aboard the @ISS.
Sure, floating looks fun, but microgravity could also unlock new scientific discoveries.
Microgravity makes the station the perfect place to perform research that is changing the lives of people on Earth, and preparing us to go deeper into space.
Over the next few weeks, we're taking you behind the scenes as we follow a team of scientists as they launch their research off our planet to the space station.
Stay tuned for future episodes of our weekly series NASA Explorers: Microgravity IGTV. 📺

Our Curiosity rover spots a “dust devil” on Mars 💨
Mars is often a very dynamic place, due to its atmosphere and how it interacts with the surface. Right now, it's the “windy season” in the region where our Curiosity rover is operating. On Aug. 9, one of the rover's navigation cameras captured the frames in this animation showing a spinning, columnar vortex of wind - also known as a "dust devil" - moving across the landscape.
This dust devil appears to be passing through small hills just above Curiosity's present location on Mount Sharp, a peak within Gale Crater. The dust devil is approximately one-third to a half-mile (half-a-kilometer to a kilometer) away, and estimated to be about 16 feet (5 meters) wide. The dust plume disappears past the top of the frame, so an exact height can't be known, but it's estimated to be at least 164 feet (50 meters) tall.

Let’s talk about microgravity!
The International Space Station (@ISS), a laboratory like no other, offers something we can’t get on our home planet: Microgravity. Join our #NASAExplorers as we follow a team of scientists during their journey to launch their research to the space station, and discover what a microgravity environment may reveal.
Starting next week, we will be releasing episodes of the NASA Explorers: Microgravity series on IGTV as our countdown begins to the 20th anniversary of humans continuously living in space. So, mark your calendars for November 2 to celebrate #SpaceStation20th with us!

What you're looking at is a rocket booster test for our Space Launch System (SLS) rocket that will power the first Artemis missions to the Moon! SLS's two boosters are the largest, most powerful boosters ever built for flight.
For a little over two minutes — the same amount of time that the boosters power the SLS rocket during liftoff and flight for each Artemis mission — the five-segment flight support booster fired in the Utah desert, producing more than 3 million pounds of thrust.
Together with @NorthropGrumman, we will use data from this test to evaluate the motor's performance using potential new materials and processes that can be incorporated into future boosters.

Гербът не е просто лого.🛡️ За него си има правила, определени от науката за гербовете, наречена хералдика. 📖 Гербът на България се променя няколко пъти през годините, а настоящата му версия е избрана и одобрена на 31 юли 1997 година. Символите в него не са избрани случайно - ето точно какво означават! 🇧🇬
