The solar system never stands still, and changes have happened here, too.
@CassiniSaturn is now@NASASolarSystem. Why? The Cassini mission concluded in 2017, but its legacy of science and engineering — and its people — are active all across the solar system.

There’s more to come. Recently, we selected four concepts for future missions. They include two proposed expeditions to Venus, one to Jupiter’s volcano moon Io and another to Triton, a unique and highly active icy moon of Neptune. The final selections will happen later this year.

Europa beckons. Some of Cassini’s most astounding discoveries took place at Saturn’s moon Enceladus. At Jupiter, another ocean world calls out for exploration. Our
@EuropaClipper mission will make multiple close passes to investigate its secrets like never before.Show this threadThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo -
We’re going back to Titan! It’s straight out of science fiction: flying a robotic rotorcraft over the dunes of an alien moon. Our upcoming Dragonfly mission will return to one of Cassini’s most intriguing destinations, Saturn’s planet-sized moon Titan, with a dual-quadcopter

How close is asteroid 1998 OR2 from Earth? Is comet Borisov from outside our solar system? What’s causing comet Atlas to fall apart? Join our experts on
@Reddit to ask questions about these objects zipping into our view.

The Hubble Space Telescope has given us a new image of a nursery for stars in a nearby galaxy to the Milky Way.

What if we could live off the Moon's existing resources? In 2005,
@NASAHubble turned its powerful instruments onto our nearest neighbor and found ilmenite, a mineral rich in oxygen that could be a key resource for our#Artemis astronauts.#Hubble30

The famous Hubble Deep Field image reveals thousands of galaxies beyond our own, each containing billions of stars. We now know that many stars have their own planets. Too many solar systems — and too many worlds — to count. Thank you,

The image on the right is what the
