This 17-metre-long robotic arm was extensively involved in the assembly of the orbiting laboratory. https://go.nasa.gov/2ReaU42 0:41 Crew Earth Observations record how the planet is changing over time, from human-caused changes like urban growth and reservoir construction, to natural dynamic events such as hurricanes, floods and volcanic eruptions. https://go.nasa.gov/2KLFAaq 0:49 The Light Microscopy Module (LMM) is a modified commercial, highly flexible, state-of-the-art light imaging microscope facility that provides researchers with powerful diagnostic hardware and software onboard the space station. https://go.nasa.gov/2RfdYwS 0:53 ACE-T-2 looks at the assembly of complex structures from micron-scale colloidal particles interacting via tunable attractive interactions. https://go.nasa.gov/2Re2ppS 0:57 Plant Habitat-1 comprehensively compares differences in genetics, metabolism, photosynthesis, and gravity sensing between plants grown in space and on Earth. https://go.nasa.gov/2MdDBfc 1:05 The Cupola provides an observation and work area for the International Space Station crew that gives visibility to support the control of the station’s robotic arms, and a beautiful view of the Earth, celestial objects and visiting vehicles. https://go.nasa.gov/2CRsxCT 1:14 Atomization observes the disintegration processes of low-speed water jets under various conditions to improve spray combustion processes inside rocket and jet engines. https://go.nasa.gov/2RkKrlN 1:30 BCAT-CS focuses on the study of forces between particles that cluster together by studying sediments of quartz and clay particles. https://go.nasa.gov/2p6WBSV 1:38 Functional Immune analyzes blood and saliva samples to determine the changes taking place in crew members’ immune systems during flight. https://go.nasa.gov/2RfUMz1 2:03 Life Support Rack (LSR) is a technology demonstrator for closed loop air revitalization. https://go.nasa.gov/2Rdfi3C 2:15 The Japanese Experiment Module Airlock is used to deliver science experiments to external platforms, and prepare small satellites for deployment from station. https://go.nasa.gov/2RdcBik 2:23 SPHERES Tether Slosh combines fluid dynamics equipment with robotic capabilities aboard the space station to investigate automated strategies for steering passive cargo that contain fluids. https://go.nasa.gov/2RfQPdQ Follow updates on the science conducted aboard the space station on Twitter: https://twitter.com/iss_research For more information on how you can conduct your research in microgravity, visit https://go.nasa.gov/2q84LJj

While Apollo placed the first steps on the Moon, Artemis opens the door for humanity to sustainably work and live on another world for the first time. Using the lunar surface as a proving ground for living on Mars, this next chapter in exploration will forever establish our presence in the stars. ✨ We are returning to the Moon – to stay – and this is how we are going! Actress Kelly Marie Tran of “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker” lent her voice to this project. #NASA #SpaceExploration #Astronomy #SpaceVideos #Science #OuterSpace #SpaceResearch #Cosmos #Astrophysics #SpaceDiscoveries #RocketLaunch #Galaxies #Planets #Universe #Stargazing #EarthFromSpace #SpaceTechnology #SpaceMissions #NASAInsights #Stellar #Astrobiology #SpaceNews #ScienceFacts #NASACommunity #Extraterrestrial

This 4K visualization shows the Moon's phase and libration at hourly intervals throughout 2022, as viewed from the Southern Hemisphere. Each frame represents one hour. In addition, this visualization shows the Moon's orbit position, sub-Earth and subsolar points, and distance from the Earth at true scale. Craters near the terminator are labeled, as are Apollo landing sites, maria, and other albedo features in sunlight.
