@PatMcAfeeShow this is coach Cole, head football coach from Chapin High School. I saw you are coming to Columbia SC. Come watch the most electric place in the nation Friday night for high school football!
Go Eagles!
AND THAT'S A WRAP! SOFIA's flights are over, but its legacy lives on.
This month FLEW by. We hope you enjoyed learning with us! Though our flight operations are ending, we will continue to share exciting science with you. #SOFIAFinalFlight

This isn't just a plane. It's so much more.

This weekend is the official start of the @NOSBRocks#NOSB22 regional competitions. We wish all the students competing across the country good luck as they showcase their #ocean#science knowledge after months of research and study.
🏠 Home, home on Lagrange! We successfully completed our burn to start #NASAWebb on its orbit of the 2nd Lagrange point (L2), about a million miles (1.5 million km) from Earth. It will orbit the Sun, in line with Earth, as it orbits L2. blogs.nasa.gov/webb/2022/01/…#UnfoldTheUniverse
Sorry for the shade, @NASASun, @NASAMoon & @NASAEarth! But you're just not cool enough 😎
Now fully deployed, our sunshield blocks your heat & light so that our mirrors will be able to detect faint heat signals in the universe: go.nasa.gov/3sXp6ov#UnfoldTheUniverse

✅ Milestone achieved. @NASAWebb is safely in space, powered on, and communicating with ground controllers.
The space telescope is now on its way to #UnfoldTheUniverse at its final destination one million miles (1.5 million km) away from Earth.
A: @SOFIAtelescope’s discovery of water inside a crater on this heavenly body and a clue on last night’s @Jeopardy.
Q: What is the Moon?

"Endeavour arriving!" Welcome to the @Space_Station, Crew-2!
Their arrival means there are now 11 humans aboard our orbiting laboratory, a number not seen since the space shuttle era. Hugs abound.
We're ONE day from @NASAPersevere's landing! Today’s #CountdownToMars events:
♦️ 12:30pm ET (5:30pm UTC): Elementary school student Q&A
♦️ 1pm ET (6pm UTC): Mission status update
♦️ 3pm ET (8pm UTC): Proof of ancient life & sample return overview

Given scientists around the globe are celebrating #PolarPride today, it seemed like the perfect time to announce that @NOSBRocks 2021 competition year theme is PLUNGING INTO OUR POLAR SEAS.
More theme related info will be released shortly!

We detected water on the Moon’s sunlit surface for the first time! This suggests water may be distributed across the lunar surface, and not limited to cold, shadowed places.
