A 950-mile-long cloud was spotted above Mars by @ESA Mars Express camera. Plumes like this aren't uncommon on Mars, but this one has stuck around longer than most. It's been holding its post near the Arsia Mons volcano 🌋 since October 10th! Via: https://t.co/T9qdcnWazM

There was a lot of speculation about where @NASA would choose to land the upcoming Mars 2020 rover. The decision is in, and the geologically-rich Jezero Crater looks to be the clear winner! Via: https://t.co/zeqr5y0MXk

Geobiologists posited that Mars could be capable of supporting life in oxygen-rich, salty waters. While still an unknown, this possibility makes upcoming Mars exploration missions that much more exciting! https://t.co/FTD1PX2BwM

Getting to sneak a peak inside NASA's Rotation Processing Surge Facility and Vehicle Assembly Building was an amazing experience! These are active pieces of history, used during the days of the Space Shuttle program, and they will be used again for EM-1 missions. #NASASocial

The Veggie Plant Growth Facility is where NASA is working toward the crucial goal of growing food in low or no gravity environments. The lab is currently growing Zinnia from seeds harvested on the ISS from Scott Kelly's plant! #NASASocial

A huge thanks to NASA for inviting us out for their #NasaSocial event! Our first stop was touring NASA's R&D facility, Swamp Works! Here, prototypes are developed and tested in moon simulate regolith.
