Rocket tanks experience extreme temps from cold propellants to friction created as they soar through Earth’s atmosphere to space. To protect against this, a thermal protection foam has been added to tanks for our @NASA_SLS deep space rocket. Take a look: https://go.nasa.gov/2NdNg5Z pic.twitter.com/3M7mBJkDJf

These chiseled remnants of an ancient impact crater on Mars’ surface suggest it once held a lake.... another nod to the Red Planet’s complex geologic past, seen by our Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter: https://go.nasa.gov/2NdEfty pic.twitter.com/5kdFT4VVef

Glowing warmly against the dark backdrop of the universe, this irregular galaxy seen by @NASAHubble has bright pockets of star formation. Located ~70 million light-yrs away, it’s host to a peculiarly interesting exploded star, aka a supernova. See why: https://go.nasa.gov/2KSXcoJ pic.twitter.com/BQrqIcBF9v
