Today marks 17 years since NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) began orbiting the Moon and collecting detailed data about its surface. Here's one of our favorite spots as seen by LRO: the Apollo 11 landing site featuring the descent stage of the lunar module at center!

This Apollo 17 photo (AS17-146-22386) taken by mission commander Gene Cernan is particularly interesting, not because there are UAPs or UFOs in it but because we can see the LRV with Jack Schmitt at it and then waaaaaay in the distance, the LM is just a tiny little point of gold.

Absolutely stunning views coming back from Curiosity today as she continues on up the valley she's exploring... look at the ground! Credits: NASA/JPL-Caltech/S Atkinson

The magmatic component tells us that H isotopes were homogenized during formation of ancient Martian mantle reservoirs, while the hydrosphere component supports rapid H loss from the juvenile Martian atmosphere.
We used SIMS to measure ages and hydrogen isotopes in phosphate minerals from Teghaza 001. The phosphates record mixing between magmatic water and a D-rich component with an imprint of the ancient Martian hydrosphere.
Excited to share our new paper: A Noachian hydrosphere component in the 4.1-Ga Martian meteorite Teghaza 001. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… Teghaza 001 is a rare piece of previously unsampled ancient Martian crust, a plagioclase-rich gabbroic rock that formed >4.1 billion years ago.
@astro_Pettit One my all time favorites of your videos / experiments
@ForrestMeyen @LunarOutpostInc Congrats Forrest! 🏎️

POV: You’re coming home after a journey around the Moon. 🌕 Before reentering Earth’s atmosphere at the end of Artemis II, the Orion spacecraft’s crew module — carrying the astronauts — separated from the service module that provided propulsion and power throughout the mission.
Jaw-dropping 3D visualization of all known exoplanets in our cosmic neighborhood! Thinking about all the moons of those planets… eyes.nasa.gov/apps/exo/#/

@drcrater We want to pick your brain about the pumice-y shocked Coconino! We found some near on the proximal ejecta blanket near the S. Rim / small open pit silica mining operation. Enjoy!

Got something weighing you down? Shake it off (like Curiosity)! The Martian explorer unintentionally picked up a rock while drilling a recent sample, but the team was able to dislodge it by having the rover move its robotic arm and vibrate the drill until the rock fell off.
