A cool thing about astronauts is that satellites rarely come back to tell their senators about how awesome NASA is.
🚀Watch Chairman @SenTedCruz’s full remarks as he welcomes the @NASAArtemis II crew to Capitol Hill this morning:
Launching tonight: NASA’s STORIE mission! 🚀
STORIE will be mounted outside the International Space Station to study a giant doughnut of particles surrounding our planet that influence how Earth responds to solar eruptions.👇
Follow the launch:
NASA is launching a new experiment to track charged particles in a "space doughnut" encircling Earth. 🍩
Installed on the @Space_Station, STORIE will study the ring current — a swarm of particles that can surge when a solar blast hits Earth, disrupting satellites & power grids.
Después del éxito alcanzado con la misión Artemis II hacia la Luna, la NASA adelantó el lanzamiento de su próximo gran telescopio espacial Nancy Grace Roman, de una precisión nunca antes vista, a septiembre de este año.
Los detalles con @olimpia_avila.
