Via #NASA - Artemis II Wet Dress Rehearsal: All SLS Stages in Replenish Mode www.nasa.gov/blogs/missio...

Here is a complete list of astronomical events—from meteor showers to total eclipses to planetary conjunctions—that @philplait.bsky.social is most looking forward to observing this year. Remember to check your local timings for when exactly these events will take place! 🌠 bit.ly/45FnoL3

And NG-2 clock reset ~30 minutes

NG-2 Hold at T-0:00:20

The countdown to Mars in ON! Today our twin spacecraft for NASA and UCB's ESCAPADE mission are set to lift off from Cape Canaveral. 🚀 2:57 PM EST 🚀 19:57 UTC Mission info: rocketlabcorp.com/missions/esc... Launch webcast starts at T-20 mins: blueorigin.com/missions/ng-2

NG-2 (and hence ESCAPADE) launch postponed due to solar activity.

ESCAPADE's launch is now NET November 12th space-missions.com/mission/esca...

We've updated space-missions.com/mission/esca... with the next launch possibility.

Hold, and presumably scrub for today's NG-2 launch attempt.

Blue Origin Readies Second New Glenn Mission With Two Mars Cubesats Onboard spacepolicyonline.com/news/blue-or...

Twin spacecraft are set to take off on an unprecedented, winding journey to Mars, where they will investigate why the barren red planet began to lose its atmosphere billions of years ago. https://cnn.it/49FLkR0

Fun fact: the very first event we added to our site was the launch of Europa Clipper which happened one year ago today!

We've added Estrack status: space-missions.com/estrack/

Earlier today, DNS Madrid seemed to be communicating with Juno!

Sounds like there might be news later in the week

Hard to find out what’s happening with Juno. We had them down for mission end this month but haven’t heard confirmation.

Asteroid Donaldjohanson just got some new names for its various surface features. The names were proposed by the NASA Lucy mission team to the IAU based on various paleoanthropological sites and discoveries. science.nasa.gov/solar-system... #PlanetSci

JUICE (hopefully) had its Venus Gravity Assist space-missions.com/mission/juice/

ESA's Juice mission to Jupiter is on track for its gravity-assist flyby at Venus on 31 August, following the successful resolution of a spacecraft anomaly that temporarily disrupted communication with Earth. www.esa.int/Enabling_Sup...

If you are so inclined, stop what you are doing for about 20 minutes at about 4:00 PM EDT today and go to apolloinrealtime.org/11/ You'll hear from 56 years ago, two humans land on a world where humans had never been to. The landing occurred at 4:17 PM ET. #Apollo11 #MoonDay 1/

Our very own Jennie “Starstuff” King will be on Global News BC this morning talking about it!

Happy International Moon Day!

New experimental integration with the Deep Space Network data.

Ispace will have a press conference at 00:00 UTC (8:00 pm EDT) with update on Mission 2 ( RESILIENCE/TENACIOUS).

Our hearts go out to the iSpace team :-(

Neat! NASA just released a thermal image of Mars taken by the Jupiter-bound Europa Clipper spacecraft. Their story is here; I'll provide some context in following posts. www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/nasas-e...

Just now, NASA's asteroid explorer Lucy has downloaded data indicating that the spacecraft is in good condition following its encounter with the main belt asteroid Donaldjohanson. Images and other data are expected over the next few days.

For more Lucy-related events, see space-missions.com/mission/lucy/

Asteroid encounter! Lucy is 27,000 km from Donaldjohanson, which is currently between 25 & 42 pixels across in it’s camera’s field of vew as I quote-tweet this. #plansci 🔭

Athena/IM-2: Continuing, "With the direction of the sun, the orientation of the solar panels and extreme cold temperatures in the crater, Intuitive Machines does not expect Athena to recharge. The mission has concluded and teams are continuing to assess the data collected." (3/3)

Athena/IM-2: In a statement, Intuitive Machines said the downlinked images "confirmed that Athena was on her side. After landing, mission controllers were able to accelerate several program and payload milestones, including NASA’s PRIME-1 (drill) suite, before the lander’s batteries depleted." (2/3)

Athena/IM-2: Intuitive Machines released a dramatic photo from its Athena moon lander, confirming the spacecraft is tipped over on its side; the photo shows the view from the top of the lander, with two of its landing legs extended away from the surface framing Earth in the distant background (1/3)

It appears @Int_Machines IM-2 landed on time and largely to the trajectory they planned. @eelkevisser.bsky.social @amsat-dl.org

WOW.

With the #BGM-1 lander from @firefly-aerospace.bsky.social now safely on the surface of the Moon, we've had some time to take a closer look at the @radiotelescoop.bsky.social's observation of the #BGM-1 signal during the landing, which shows several events during the landing sequence.

NASA Astrobiology on Twitter had a really cute gif of Perseverance Rover waving to Europa Clipper as it performs a Mars flyby on March 1st. It's too good to not share it here. Kudos to the artist! Perseverance will actually attempt to image it during the flyby. Image credit: x.com/NASAAstrobio...

We've added a few more missions, including Lunar Trailblazer and Odin. space-missions.com

All the best to @planet4589.bsky.social with his retirement. Will gladly welcome him back to the UK! www.newscientist.com/article/2468...

Firefly says Blue Ghost Mission 1 will land on the Moon on March 2, 2:45 am CENTRAL Time (3:45 am Eastern). Livestream begins 1:30 am Central/2:30 am Eastern on NASA+ and Firefly's YouTube channel [www.youtube.com/channel/UC31...] Post-landing news conf to follow. Details TBA.
