Liftoff! 🚀 Yesterday, @europeanspaceagency’s

Liftoff! 🚀 Yesterday, @europeanspaceagency’s #HERA mission successfully launched, marking a major leap in planetary defense!
This groundbreaking mission is part of an international collaboration with @nasa's DART mission, both aimed at protecting Earth from potential asteroid threats. HERA’s journey will take it to the Didymos binary asteroid system, where it will closely study the aftermath of DART’s intentional impact on the smaller moonlet, Dimorphos, which took place in 2022. 🌖

Why is this important? While an asteroid collision with Earth is highly unlikely in the near future, it’s essential to prepare for any potential threats. HERA will gather crucial data on how DART's impact changed Dimorphos’ orbit and structure, offering deeper insights into how effective asteroid deflection techniques can be. 🛡️ These findings will help scientists refine strategies for future asteroid mitigation efforts, ensuring we’re better equipped to protect our planet if a hazardous object is ever detected.
Let’s take a moment to appreciate this incredible achievement in space science! 💫

Could We Find Life on Jupiter’s Moon Europa? 🌍🚀

NASA’s next mission might have answers! 🛰️ Europa, one of Jupiter’s moons, is one of the most exciting places to search for signs of life in our solar system. Under its icy surface lies a salty ocean, and scientists believe it has the right conditions to support life. 🌊✨

Next week, on October 10th, NASA is launching the Europa Clipper mission to explore this mysterious moon. It’s set to reach Jupiter in 2030, so we’ll need some patience, but the discoveries could be life-changing. 🤯

Here’s why Europa is so promising:
🌊 A 4-billion-year-old salty ocean under thick ice
⚛️ Essential elements like carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen
🛡️ Protection from radiation thanks to its ice shell

Stay tuned as we follow this exciting mission! 🔭💫

#MarsMonday NASA scientists recreate Mars 'spiders

#MarsMonday NASA scientists recreate Mars 'spiders' in a lab for the first time❗The formations appeared within Martian soil simulant during experiments in JPL’s DUSTIE chamber. Carbon dioxide ice frozen within the simulant was warmed by a heater below, turning it back into gas that eventually cracked through the frozen top layer and formed a plume. Experiments conducted in the chamber confirmed how Martian formations known as “spiders” are created. 🕷️👏 This is a huge step forward in understanding the unique features of the Red Planet.

#MarsMonday NASA scientists recreate Mars 'spiders

#MarsMonday NASA scientists recreate Mars 'spiders' in a lab for the first time❗The formations appeared within Martian soil simulant during experiments in JPL’s DUSTIE chamber. Carbon dioxide ice frozen within the simulant was warmed by a heater below, turning it back into gas that eventually cracked through the frozen top layer and formed a plume. Experiments conducted in the chamber confirmed how Martian formations known as “spiders” are created. 🕷️👏 This is a huge step forward in understanding the unique features of the Red Planet.

🚀 Big news from Belgrade! 🤝 The Austrian Spa

🚀 Big news from Belgrade! 🤝
The Austrian Space Forum (OeWF) and Serbia’s @argo_srt Student Robotics Team just signed a Memorandum of Understanding! 🎉 This partnership means Argo will take part in major space missions, including building their own Mars rover and drone for the World’s Biggest Analog (WBA)!

Dr. Gernot Grömer, president of OeWF, also gave an inspiring lecture to students at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, sharing insights on Mars analog missions and the future of space exploration. ✨

Teamwork is key to making space exploration happen, and this collaboration is an exciting step forward! Argo is also looking for passionate volunteers to join them on their journey—don’t miss out!

Liftoff! 🚀 Yesterday, @europeanspaceagency’s

Liftoff! 🚀 Yesterday, @europeanspaceagency’s #HERA mission successfully launched, marking a major leap in planetary defense!
This groundbreaking mission is part of an international collaboration with @nasa's DART mission, both aimed at protecting Earth from potential asteroid threats. HERA’s journey will take it to the Didymos binary asteroid system, where it will closely study the aftermath of DART’s intentional impact on the smaller moonlet, Dimorphos, which took place in 2022. 🌖

Why is this important? While an asteroid collision with Earth is highly unlikely in the near future, it’s essential to prepare for any potential threats. HERA will gather crucial data on how DART's impact changed Dimorphos’ orbit and structure, offering deeper insights into how effective asteroid deflection techniques can be. 🛡️ These findings will help scientists refine strategies for future asteroid mitigation efforts, ensuring we’re better equipped to protect our planet if a hazardous object is ever detected.
Let’s take a moment to appreciate this incredible achievement in space science! 💫

Could We Find Life on Jupiter’s Moon Europa? 🌍🚀

NASA’s next mission might have answers! 🛰️ Europa, one of Jupiter’s moons, is one of the most exciting places to search for signs of life in our solar system. Under its icy surface lies a salty ocean, and scientists believe it has the right conditions to support life. 🌊✨

Next week, on October 10th, NASA is launching the Europa Clipper mission to explore this mysterious moon. It’s set to reach Jupiter in 2030, so we’ll need some patience, but the discoveries could be life-changing. 🤯

Here’s why Europa is so promising:
🌊 A 4-billion-year-old salty ocean under thick ice
⚛️ Essential elements like carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen
🛡️ Protection from radiation thanks to its ice shell

Stay tuned as we follow this exciting mission! 🔭💫

We are thrilled! 🥳 The @germanaerospacecenter (DLR) and the @europeanspaceagency (ESA) are teaming up to establish a cutting-edge analog facility for lunar mission preparation at the Cologne site. LUNA will be a game-changer for astronaut training and robotic system development, paving the way for future lunar missions. 💪👏 This would also be a perfect test environment for our #AMADEE missions because the #AMADEE program is not explicitly focussed on Mars, but is open to other planetary environments. 🤩🌗
