Happy #NationalPreparednessMonth! What Natural Hazards are there around you? Are you prepared in case of an emergency? We all need to prepare for different things, but Astrogeology and the PLANETS team are here to help with some examples! #NaturalHazard #Preparedness #Safety

Mars Curiosity has started to investigate the main exposure of the boxwork structures! What was once a distant target is now on our doorstep, read more about it here: https://t.co/ogJ2PkXO49 #Mars #MSL #MarsRover #Curiosity #MarsCuriosity

#OnThisDay in 1975 the Viking-1 Orbiter launched to Mars with an orbiter and lander, on a mission to be the first spacecraft to land on Mars. Enjoy this beautiful color mosaic of Mars, using images from the Viking-1 and Viking-2 orbiters. https://t.co/3wNMFv9TNo

#OnThisDay in 1966, Lunar Orbiter entered the Moon's orbit. The Lunar Orbiter was the first American spacecraft to orbit the Moon, and later provided us the first image of Earth from a different planetary body (shown here). Find Lunar Orbiter data here: https://t.co/yGuvZYwrFv

Venus is often called "Earth's twin" because it's a similar size, mass, and composition to Earth. That atmosphere sure is different, though and makes it difficult to see what's on the surface! Explore Venus on the Astropedia! https://t.co/Ros6PhnIW7

Happy anniversary of the Apollo 15 landing! Don't miss out on these awesome interactive maps of Apollo 15, 16, and 17! Check them out here: https://t.co/UTKL1o37Ih #Apollo #Apollo15 #Apollo16 #Apollo17 #MoonLanding #ArtemisGeneration #NASAHistory #ExploreTheMoon #MoonMaps

#OnThisDay in 1969, Apollo Astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed on the Moon. This panorama was collected by Neil Armstrong from a spot east of the landing module while Buzz Aldrin was unloading the science packages. Get the full panorama here: https://t.co/vH6WxQKRrH

In this white paper, we report on six Findings related to the benefit of Artemis Base Camp to lunar geoscience. Additionally, we consider certain issues and caveats meriting further study in any base camp architecture. https://t.co/vZGUVWHTkT #Artemis #Geology #STEM @USGS_Pubs

#OnThisDay in 1997, NASA's Mars Pathfinder mission landed in an ancient flood plain on the Red Planet and started its journey. The Sojourner rover also analyzed components of rock and soil, providing the possibility of investigating water-formed features. https://t.co/msOGHhXLVf

Happy 4th of July! The Perseverence rover raises our flag in celebration of Independence Day!
