While we love every full Moon, thereβs a special place in our hearts for the Harvest Moon, which is the full Moon closest to the fall equinox. Many cultures have holidays connected to this Moon, including the mid-Autumn festival in some East Asian countries and Chuseok in Korea!

Happy #Apollo50th anniversary! I remember what it's like - the anticipation of launching on a rocket to the Moon.

10 years ago #OTD I entered lunar orbit! Since then, I've orbited the Moon over 40,000 times. Here's a few highlights of what I've learned.

Traveling back in time to 2009. The Black Eyed Peas were rocking the charts. Barack Obama was sworn in as the 44th U.S. President. And there was so much we still didnβt know about the Moon. #LRO10th
Love hearing your memories of 2009!

Happy 10th birthday to @LRO_NASA! When I went to see the launch 10 years ago I was a postdoc participating scientist, now I'm the Mini-RF DPI. Hard to believe it's been 10 years of Mini-RF radaring! We've learned a lot about the Moon and about radars during that time.

Happy 10th Anniversary @LRO_NASA! In ten years, our Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter has collected more data than all other NASA planetary missions combined and transformed our understanding of our Moon. go.nasa.gov/2MVpaSi #LRO10th

10 years ago, I launched from @NASAKennedy on a voyage to the Moon. It's been an amazing 10 years. I've orbited the Moon over 40,000 times and collected over a petabyte of data! go.nasa.gov/2WLPt1A #LRO10th

Itβs a BIG birthday for me. Tomorrow will be ten years since launch! I know. I don't look like it. Hereβs a picture of me when I was just a wee spacecraft. What were you up to ten years ago? #LRO10th

BIG NEWS GUYS. We just broke our own record for the closest a spacecraft has ever orbited a small planetary body π I'm now hanging out 2231 ft (680 m) above Bennu's surface.
