A pair of images taken by the Mars Perseverance Rover using it's arm-mounted WATSON camera on Sol 607. Both show SuperCam laser hits.

Laser-zapped regolith observed by #Perseverance's SuperCam.

Although they appear to be large, the "pebbles" in these regolith images are actually grain sized, many of them of sub-millimeter sizes. So the laser does blast some of them away.

#GRB221009A, the most powerful gamma-ray burst ever detected to date, was recorded just three days ago.

It most likely originated in a galaxy 2.4 billion light-years away, therefore, even if it got to our planet only now, the supernova that originated it most likely already turned into a black hole when multicellular life wasn't even a thing on Earth.

At the same time of the burst, #NASA confirmed a disturbance in the ionosphere on the band between 19.6 and 63.9 kHz reported by 8 radio stations around the world.

Let that sink in from a moment. A supernova that exploded in a distant galaxy in a time when jellyfishes weren't around yet, was so powerful that its echo created ripples in our radio communications today.

Now imagine what could have happened to planets that were much closer to the explosion.

These are the kind of things that really help me put everything in perspective.

MOXIE, el experimento de la NASA para producir oxígeno en Marte https://ecosdethot.info/2022/09/24/moxie-el-experimento-de-la-nasa-para-producir-oxigeno-en-marte/ El experimento MOXIE ha estado produciendo oxígeno con éxito a partir de la atmósfera rica en dióxido de carbono del planeta rojo desde febrero de 2021, cuando aterrizó en la superficie marciana como parte de la misión del Perseverance de la NASA. Los ingenieros ya planean una versión ampliada, con vista a futuras expediciones tripuladas. #marte #nasa #ciencia #tecnologia #planetas #espacio #perserverance

Do people like threads here? I guess we'll find out!

Between meetings today I thought I'd talk about #NASA #JWST and all the exciting #science we can expect from it starting in a few months!

(Yes, I made this travel mug ❤️)

The Endeavour was the newest orbiter of the small STS fleet. It flew to space and back 25 times from 1992 to 2011:

This series on the restoration of the Apollo microwave transponder made me understand just how difficult it was to send data, voice and live TV from the moon with 1960s technology 😲
