Have you, like me, been thinking about how we might create sustainable habitats and ecosystems beyond Earth? 🌊🦠🍃 If so, please consider submitting an abstract to our session P008 for @theAGU Fall Meeting 2025. Deadline is next Wed July 30th! agu.confex.com/agu/agu25/prel…
Today I and 11 other scientists describe in Nature Astronomy how recent breakthroughs in launch capabilities, climate, and synthetic biology demand a new assessment of the feasibility of terraforming Mars. @edwinkite @marsninja @CharlesCockell @RamsesSpaceman @johncumbers…
1 million laser zaps for Curiosity! ⚡ The ChemCam instrument, developed at Los Alamos National Laboratory, recently fired its laser for the 1 millionth time on Mars.👇 ow.ly/Uybb50Tlf90
Congratulations to @MarsCuriosity and the team for surpassing 1 million laser shots on the Red Planet! The rover uses ChemCam to analyze rocks and soil. Did you know? ChemCam was the only laser operating on Mars until @NASAPersevere brought SuperCam in 2021.
Also on stage, an all-star lineup of explorers, including Lhakpa Sherpa, who holds the record for the most Mt. Everest summits by a woman; Dr. @marsninja, principal investigator on the Mars Rover's ChemCam; and astronaut @RichardGarriott, current president of The @ExplorersClub.
Look closely 👀 These “leopard spots” on a Martian rock are clues pointing to possibly the best signs of ancient microbial life we’ve found yet on Mars. To know for sure, we need to study the rock in labs on Earth. More on @NASAPersevere's findings: go.nasa.gov/4bZaB6p
Absolutely astounding observations from @NASAPersevere announced today! "...we have our first compelling detection of organic material, distinctive colorful spots indicative of chemical reactions that microbial life could use as an energy source..."
Our @NASAPersevere Mars rover has found an interesting rock that could be one of the best signs yet that ancient microbial life may have once existed on the Red Planet. However, we'll need to do more research to know for sure: go.nasa.gov/3zZhsiX

An exciting new discovery by @MarsCuriosity! While traversing the Gediz Vallis channel, our Mars rover found something never seen before on the Red Planet—rocks made of pure sulfur. This is a thrilling find in our search for ancient life.
A few snaps from the #JETT5 test last week @NASA_Johnson. What an incredible team and such an exciting project! I'm even more pumped about space exploration now (& you know my enthusiasm levels were already high).
What's my week been like, you ask? Oh NBD just part of this "team of flight controllers and scientists at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston" on the #JETT5 team 🤩🌒🚀 Already an incredible learning experience!
Practice makes perfect🌙 To prepare for exploring the Moon during @NASAArtemis's campaign, the agency is conducting a week-long field test in the lunar-like landscape of San Francisco Volcanic Field near Flagstaff, Arizona to practice moonwalk scenarios. go.nasa.gov/4agAOMQ
Just a few quick snaps from our time in Chile. The Atacama is truly the most Mars-like place on Earth! I feel like I've learned so much about how to interpret our rover data from spending time in this remarkable environment. 🔴🚀🪨🦠🔬🧂
We are so small on this big, beautiful planet... I'm off to Chile to visit one of Earth's most Mars-like environments in the Atacama desert.
It was suddenly dark and cold, and Venus and Mercury appeared. It looked like sunset in all directions. We saw bright red solar prominences on the disc margins. A remarkable reminder that we live on a planet.
Things are getting noticeably dimmer! Also just discovered that the person we parked behind is also from Los Alamos 🤓
Found a reasonably clear spot at a rest stop in Arkansas. Currently the sun looks whole but the moon is up there lurking somewhere 🌝
Heading to the eclipse totality path via Texas. The wind is crazy but the sky is clear 🌞 Stopped at Cadillac Ranch, Ozymandus of the Plains, and the Leaning Tower of Texas. Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!
