Meanwhile, @NASAGoddard this week, @LRO_NASA scientist John Keller spoke to the 2017 @NASA_Astronauts class about places they could visit on the Moon. The astronauts bubbled with excitement over the thought of climbing Tycho Craterβs central peak. One dayβ¦ #NASA60th pic.twitter.com/rNY3G0XMXt

.@LRO_NASA has been at the Moon since 2009 and is the longest-running lunar orbiter. Thanks to its long life, @LRO_NASA has detected changes on our dynamic Moon, like new impact craters. lroc.sese.asu.edu/posts/943 #NASA60th pic.twitter.com/WF2rqtVhLm

If the Moon were the size of a coffee bean, Earth would be the size of a nickel and the two would be 110 coffee beans (or 30 nickels) apart. That would be a strong cup of coffee. #NationalCoffeeDay pic.twitter.com/lIInew0TMb

Since the β90s, NASA has sent a series of robotic spacecraft to the Moon. These spacecraft have transformed our understanding of our neighbor - from analyzing a very thin atmosphere to identifying water ice at the poles to mapping the lunar gravity field. go.nasa.gov/2xUyACB pic.twitter.com/UHPJthqtZa

The 842 pounds of lunar rocks and dust that our Moonwalkers collected have continued to inform our understanding of our Moon, our Earth, and our Solar System. We are still studying these samples and making new discoveries to this day. #NASA60th

If you're on the Moon, you'll see the Earth rotate because the Earth rotates much faster than the Moon. The Earth completes a rotation every day and the Moon completes a rotation every 28-29 days.

Only 3 years after its founding, President Kennedy challenged NASA to take men to the Moon. There were many unknowns and obstacles. What was the lunar surface like? Could we build a rocket to get us there? #NASA60th
