Cold and vacuum snap for the ExoMars ramps at –70°C. Engineers confirmed the ramps can open fully in Mars-like conditions. This deployment will be one of the mission's most nerve-racking moments for @esa's Rosalind Franklin rover after touchdown on Mars in 2030.

There’s no money for the sciences, there’s no money for the humanities. The welfare state is constantly being cut and we can’t invest in protecting the country from the unfolding climate crisis. But god forbid, we make billionaires and corporations pay their fair share of taxes!

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖
A pride flag with every color band represented by a NASA image. White is Earth clouds, pink is aurora, blue is the Sun in a specific wavelength, brown is Jupiter clouds, black is the Hubble deep field, red is the top of sprites, orange is a Mars crater, yellow is the surface of Io, green is a lake with algae, blue is Neptune, and purple is the Crab Nebula in a specific wavelength.

More amazing videos coming via ESA for the lander’s various ‘drop tests’ being the full system-level Drop Test Model (DTM) and then ‘single leg’ drops with the Qualification Model (QM) Landing Leg. Demonstrations on Earth preparing for that “7 minutes of terror” when we arrive in a few years’ time!
