"We hope that it's all metal. That would be great." In @NASAJPL's "On a Mission" podcast, we've heard about threats from asteroids, but what about their potential? The lead scientist of our Psyche asteroid mission explains. 🎧📲 Listen & subscribe: https://t.co/X5NrMUDvYS https://t.co/Nh547jioik — PolitiTweet.org

In preparation to search for ancient life on Mars, our #Mars2020 rover scientists visit the Australian Outback to investigate the oldest evidence for life on Earth. Though seemingly unrelated, the 2 locations share some eerie similarities. Details: https://t.co/L15tpLI9G7 https://t.co/vgbxnHhYuw — PolitiTweet.org

A Kuiper Belt object spotted by @NASAHubble & visited by @NASANewHorizons was officially named this week. With consent from Powhatan Tribal elders and representatives, it is now known as "Arrokoth," meaning “sky” in the Powhatan/Algonquian language.

No matter the similarities & differences, every galaxy is beautiful in its own way. 💜 💫 In this @NASAHubble image, we see a spiral galaxy similar to our own Milky Way. However, NGC 772 differs from our home galaxy in that it’s a “peculiar” spiral galaxy: https://t.co/8JOvc3j538 https://t.co/oKBKveS8qw — PolitiTweet.org

@RichardLuong8 Good morning to your students!👋If an astronaut were to become untethered and float away, a jetback would help him or her fly back to the spacecraft. Astronauts control it with a small joystick, like on a video game. Learn more: https://t.co/EsZZ2QVeaD — PolitiTweet.org

@PaytonRifley Great #AskNASA question! During spacewalks, astronauts use safety tethers — like ropes — to keep them from floating away into space. They also have jet packs attached to their spacesuits that can be used to maneuver back to the station in the unlikely event they become untethered — PolitiTweet.org
