I waited 44 years to be this close to an Orbiter. Nice to meet you, Atlantis. You look amazing! #spaceshuttleatlantis #spaceshuttle #ksc #kennedyspacecenter #nasa #solarsystemambassador https://www.instagram.com/p/CP_DCSCDQtg/?utm_medium=tumblr

Spent some time yesterday checking out Atlantis at KSC. #atlantis #spaceshuttleatlantis #nasa #solarsystemambassador (at NASA's John F. Kennedy Space Center) https://www.instagram.com/p/CP6dFLNjlTO/?utm_medium=tumblr

Somebody’s got to do it! Happy Star Wars Day! May The Fourth Be With You! #maythe4thbewithyou #starwarsday #nasa #jpl #solarsystemambassador https://www.instagram.com/p/COdI9JcDBej/?igshid=wxfr65xogirz

Just having a little fun. I saw an ad for kid astronaut portraits. I thought to myself, “Who’s the biggest kid you know?”
Why, me of course!

Did you know: NASA's SpaceX Crew-2 is the first NASA Commercial Crew Program mission to fly two international partner astronauts? Both Thomas Pesquet of ESA - European Space Agency and Akihiko Hoshide of JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) will be aboard the Crew Dragon launching April 22 to the International Space Station. #nasa #crewdragon #iss #solarsystemambassador https://www.instagram.com/p/CNmFBvmj2Qk/?igshid=1vvs39ahvj71a

So excited for Ingenuity’s first flight on Mars!!! Here’s my Ingenuity poster I designed to hand out at my daughter’s school. . . . #mars #ingenuity #perseverance #mars2020 #nasa #jpl #solarsystemambassador https://www.instagram.com/p/CNSvhdUDVyC/?igshid=n53zitpqd3rz

On this date, in 1968, Apollo 6 launched as an unmanned test flight. The mission was plagued with trouble, including engine problems that caused a severe pogo effect that could have shaken the rocket apart. Overall, the mission was a “successful failure” because it led to important changes in the F-1 engines. Due to the tragic assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, there was almost no press coverage of this launch. The Apollo 6 CM now sits at the Fernbank Science Center (not to be confused with the Fernbank Museum of Natural History) in Atlanta Georgia. #nasa #apollo #space #atlanta #georgia #solarsystemambassador https://www.instagram.com/p/CNQYFrwDI8Q/?igshid=1t7n3j398zbtm

Due to differences in pressure, temperature, and composition of atmospheres, sound waves would travel differently to our ears on Mars. This video shows how I sound on Earth and how I would sound on Mars. (turn sound on) #SolarSystemAmbassador #space #mars #perseverance https://www.instagram.com/p/CMSX5DDD_Dm/?igshid=1wa38o2h8446q

Sometimes, a little of “The Right Stuff” in your kit can be that extra motivation in your day. #therightstuff #space #chuckyeager #nasa #stem #beemansgum #airbornescienceprogram #solarsystemambassador https://www.instagram.com/p/CMQ0WlMjBMa/?igshid=xtntgh9dbstf

We use filters and adjustments to bring out details in the images Perseverance sends us from Mars. These adjustments help scientists on Earth learn more about our planetary neighbor. #nasajpl #perseverance #stem #marsrover #solarsystemambassador . . jmbrackett.com https://www.instagram.com/p/CL8QvzSjhYR/?igshid=1e5frwtksyn6e

What a day! Video from the landing! Raw images to work with! This is so cool! @nasajpl @nasa @nasasolarsystem #perseverance #percy #mars2020 #solarsystemambassador https://www.instagram.com/p/CLn80E2D2Jx/?igshid=j6nbbbsv9hbr

This is so freakin’ cool! I’m already working with raw data from Perseverance! This image was taken today! Keep in mind, this is from a camera that’s like a backup cam on your car. The main cameras haven’t been deployed yet. That’s when the real fun starts! #perseverance #mars #nasa #solarsystemambassador https://www.instagram.com/p/CLk23M7jGSl/?igshid=phqp9inq7owd
