When all your friends go the KSC to watch the Artemis II rocket roll out but you’re recovering from pneumonia and can’t travel….. you build your own! #Legostressrelief #FOMO @NASAArtemis

I love Dragonfly..An autonomous ~1,000-pound, radioisotope-powered octocopter flying for years in −290°F temps on Titan is exactly the kind of near-impossible science mission NASA exists to achieve.

Today I will begin serving a detail assignment as @NASA’s acting associate administrator. I’m honored to assume this leadership position as the agency continues operating & developing impactful missions. I’m proud to appoint Steve Koerner as acting director of @NASA_Johnson, supporting a busy period in human spaceflight over the coming weeks.   This week alone, NASA is launching missions to the Moon, Sun, & beyond. I’m grateful for my supportive team at Johnson & look forward to supporting our agency in my new role.   #GiantLeapsStartHere
