For #womenshistorymonth, we see how crews on @Space_Station with multiple women are finally becoming common. Why’s this matter? To me, it’s making more successful missions and a world where people with a dream work equally hard to reach that dream. Here’s to my own astro sisters!

In six days, we will reveal the four astronauts chosen to sail around the Moon for the #Artemis II mission. It’s our next major step in establishing a long-term scientific and human presence on the lunar surface.
Who do you think it will be? 👩🚀👨🚀

@TomSMustache @NASA_Astronauts @NASA @Axiom_Space @NASAArtemis Great Q! Though this prototype uses a dark gray cover material, the final version will likely be all-white when worn to help keep astronauts safe and cool while working in the harsh environment of space.

Orlando and @NASAKennedy at night, taken from the @Space_Station. Launch pads 39A and 39B, former Apollo Saturn V pads but now Artemis and SpaceX, are visible. Orbital #astrophotography can turn Earth-based phenomena into something entirely new and unique to capture.

With the support of so many incredible people over many years, we all accomplished the mission: we left the International Space Station and human spaceflight a little better than we found it. Thank you. With that, please consider this my out-of-the-office for a while.
