The performance of our AstroPix gamma-ray sensors will be tested on @NASA’s FFR (Fly Foundational Robots) mission set to launch in late 2027. In the future, these sensors could detect light from black hole-powered galaxies and cosmic explosions. More: go.nasa.gov/4eduN97

A frozen river starts to melt ❄️ On April 21, 2026, Landsat 9 captured an image of the Kuskokwim River — frozen over from a cold winter — near Aniak, Alaska. By May 7, the river had begun to thaw, causing water to back up and ice to pile on riverbanks. go.nasa.gov/3PSG4lR

From Moon joy to Earth joy, the journey continues. Before any great road trip, you start with prep: check the weather, tune the car, pack smart. Artemis III is no different. We’re building our science game plan, studying Earth’s atmosphere and how space affects the human body, to ensure future Artemis missions are safe and ready for the journey.

Introducing Artemis III. Four astronauts. Three launches. Two dockings. One splashdown. In 2027, the Artemis III mission will practice docking the Orion spacecraft with two lunar landers in low Earth orbit — the capability we need to return humanity to the Moon’s surface.

What does Mario have in common with supernova 2017egm? 🌟 Star power-up! Using Fermi, scientists found that the unusually bright supernova was likely powered up by a supermagnetized neutron star born in the stellar collapse that started the explosion. go.nasa.gov/3RKYCox
