When I was a MS #librarian, I felt compelled to hold a @scholastic book fair b/c it was often my only source of funding. I told myself that holding the book fair meant I’d be able to add more books to the library for those kids who couldn’t afford to purchase at the fair. Later…

The #MarsHelicopter is really “spreading its wings” now – even pushing beyond my camera's field of view. Watch my view of Flight #3, as Ingenuity takes off on a long run (164 ft/50 m) down its flight zone and back. go.nasa.gov/3ewRa9m

NASA Perseverance on the Ground in Color
Perseverance can be seen in this enhanced HiRISE color image at its landing site, six days after touchdown, doing system checks. The site appears to be covered in loose dark material with brighter material underneath.

I’m taking it all in. This is the first 360º view of my home using Mastcam-Z. This dual, high-definition camera system sits atop my mast and has zoom capability. Inspect tiny details of Jezero Crater with the special interactive viewer at go.nasa.gov/2P0fNC4 #CountdownToMars
The moment that my team dreamed of for years, now a reality. Dare mighty things.

An open horizon, with so much to explore. Can’t wait to get going.
