In February 2024, there were three episodes of global auroras at Mars - an aurora hat trick! The Red Planet is experiencing its greatest level of auroral activity in the past 10 years, and MAVEN is getting a front row seat to it. Learn more: spaceweather.com/archive.php?vi…
Mars is red, the Earth is blue, NASA made #ValentinesDay cards for your sweetheart and you: go.nasa.gov/valentines
Recently, @APSphysics highlighted MAVEN research on further understanding Mars' patchy aurora. This research explores the solar wind’s orientation relative to Mars’ magnetic-field lines, creating conditions ripe for magnetic reconnection. Learn more: physics.aps.org/articles/v17/18
Guess who’s back! This month, Mars returns to the early morning sky. 🔴 For now, it’s quite low and not super bright, but you can watch it brightening and rising earlier and earlier over the next few months. More skywatching tips: science.nasa.gov/skywatching
The era of powered, controlled flight on the Red Planet has come to an end – for now. The #MarsHelicopter proved that it was possible and paved the way for future explorers. #ThanksIngenuity, for taking Mars exploration to new heights. go.nasa.gov/42b77KA
Today is our annual Day of Remembrance. #NASARemembers the crews of Apollo 1, space shuttles Challenger and Columbia, and all members of the NASA family who lost their lives while furthering the cause of exploration and discovery. nasa.gov/DoR
2023 wrapped! 🎬 Here are the top picture-perfect Martian moments of the year:
Our @MAVEN2Mars orbiter witnessed the unexpected “disappearance” of the solar wind at Mars. Learn more about this rare solar system event that is helping scientists to better understand the physics that drive atmospheric and water loss at Mars: go.nasa.gov/3tdO2ug
In 12/2022, @NASAMars' MAVEN mission witnessed a remarkable event – the "disappearance" of the solar wind caused by a powerful solar event. This unique occurrence led to fascinating changes in Mars' atmosphere and magnetosphere. MAVEN continues to provide valuable insights into…
Mars’ atmosphere has been eroding for billions of years as the Sun’s energy pummels it. #AGU23 Recently, our orbiting MAVEN spacecraft detected a brief void in the solar wind, causing the Red Planet's magnetosphere to expand dramatically: go.nasa.gov/3thOiZh
For billions of years, the solar wind has been eroding the Martian atmosphere. But what happens when the solar wind just… disappears? Our MAVEN spacecraft was able to observe this surprising and unusual solar system event. go.nasa.gov/47TY56U
In Dec '22, @NASA’s MAVEN mission saw the unexpected disappearance of the solar wind, a stream of charged particles constantly emanating off the Sun. This was caused by a type of solar event that was so powerful, it created a void in its wake. Learn more: nasa.gov/missions/maven…
It's our 10th launch-iversary! A decade ago, @NASAMars MAVEN mission launched and began its epic journey to Mars. To celebrate, we’re initiating a new T-minus 10 countdown of stories about what MAVEN team members remember from that special day. lasp.colorado.edu/maven/2023/11/…
Talk about going in circles! Today MAVEN completed its 20,000th orbit around Mars! 20,000 orbits of learning about the Martian upper atmosphere and understanding the evolution of the Red Planet. Here's to many more! 📽️: @NASAMars Scientific Visualization Studio
While Mars and Earth are on opposite sides of the Sun for two weeks, we have limited communication with spacecraft. See how our robotic explorers will stay productive during this biannual event known as solar conjunction: go.nasa.gov/47uClxT

Constant changes, no matter how small, can lead to some big discoveries. In a recent study by MAVEN scientists, new observations reveal that the rate at which hydrogen escapes from Mars to space, and the corresponding loss of water. Learn more: lasp.colorado.edu/maven/2023/10/…
#DYK? A #SolarEclipse can happen on Mars too! Last year, @NASAPersevere captured Phobos, a moon of Mars, eclipsing the Sun. This is the highest-quality imaging of a Martian solar eclipse taken from the Red Planet.
