    It might be Halloween, but we have plenty of “Easter Eggs” from this video to share.

    The building’s mural might say Galaxy of Horrors, but it is also a galaxy of wonders. Here, you can learn about all the images painted on the building:

    The Sun as seen by our orbiting Solar Dynamics Observatory: https://go.nasa.gov/3Wh5wQ2

    Tarantula Nebula: https://go.nasa.gov/3RD7Ldt

    Witch Head Nebula: https://go.nasa.gov/2DbYWFo

    Black Widow Nebula: https://go.nasa.gov/3DNJ1Lv

    Helix Nebula: https://go.nasa.gov/3FwVxjB

    Colliding galaxies: https://go.nasa.gov/36kPZ7M

    Dead comet: https://go.nasa.gov/3zyPcka

    The Andromeda Galaxy: https://go.nasa.gov/3SShuwA

    The cat’s eyes get their own nebula (Cat Eye Nebula): https://go.nasa.gov/2Olp55Z

    Did you notice who signed the mural? That’s Artemis, goddess of the Moon. Our #Artemis I mission is scheduled to launch around the Moon and back on November 14: https://www.nasa.gov/specials/artemis/

    Whose portraits are in the building?

    Lyman Strong Spitzer, the renowned astrophysicist for whom the Spitzer Space Telescope was named: https://go.nasa.gov/3UgNuMd

  • Happy Halloween from NASA

    Happy Halloween from NASA

    Even though it is Halloween, NASA is giving you some “Easter Eggs” in this video.

    Can you spot the significance of the house number? (Hint: T-Minus)

    The sounds you hear, as the pumpkin is carving, are actually real spooky sounds from space. Listen: https://www.nasa.gov/vision/universe/features/halloween_sounds.html

    The pictures in the windows are from NASA Science’s Spooky Saturn, and SDO’s Jack-o-lantern Sun. Take a look: https://solarsystem.nasa.gov/resources/17543/spooky-saturn/
    https://www.nasa.gov/content/goddard/sdo-jack-o-lantern-sun

    Do you like the “NASA Pumpkin?”… Guess what? You can create your own NASA Space Pumpkins: https://spaceplace.nasa.gov/pumpkins/en/

    Of course, the candy is collected by little Trick-or-Treaters who are part of the “Artemis Generation” and one could even be the first to set foot on Mars: https://www.nasa.gov/artemis/Be_a_part_of_the_Artemis_Generation

    That International Space Station bag is important – not only does it hold candy; it also holds history. NASA just completed the first all-woman spacewalk: https://blogs.nasa.gov/spacestation/2019/10/18/nasa-astronauts-wrap-up-historic-all-woman-spacewalk/

    Another bag of treats is the new series #AskNASA, where our experts answer your questions about space exploration and science: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2aBZuCeDwlSCC1SWGzUJiZPDew-AEFpq

    The Helmet was created by the talented folks at NASA’s Ames Research Center. You can download it and other models from NASA’s 3D Model page: https://nasa3d.arc.nasa.gov/models

    Our little Spiders are here to represent. This is the 50th Anniversary of Apollo, and Apollo 9 had the first Lunar Module to be deployed in space; and its name was “Spider”: https://images.nasa.gov/details-as09-21-3183.html

    What is Halloween without Bats? Did you know that the Hubble Space Telescope captured a Cosmic Bat? … well, its shadow anyway: https://www.nasa.gov/image-feature/goddard/2018/hubble-reveals-a-giant-cosmic-bat-shadow

    All in all, NASA wishes you a Happy Halloween!

  • Happy Halloween from NASA

    Happy Halloween from NASA

    You have heard of astronaut ice-cream? Well, these trick-or-treaters are loaded up with “NASA candy.” Watch as these kids marvel at the special Halloween treats in store for them.

  • Vampire Slime – Sick Science! #211

    Vampire Slime – Sick Science! #211

    Where does slime come from, you ask? Monsters, of course. But thanks to some cool genetic mutations, vampires now have their own slime. Telling the difference between monster slime and vampire slime can be tricky at first glance, unless you know the vampire secret… hold the slime up to the light. Ordinary monster slime just looks green (because monster blood is green, dah). Vampire slime, on the other hand, shows its true color when you hold it up to the light because the green turns dark red to reveal what vampires drink… well… you know… that stuff. Leave it to the vampires to find another way to hide their true identity.

But hiding just below the surface of the water is an amazing collection of large, jelly-like marbles that become invisible when submerged in water. The Jelly Marbles become invisible due to an identical index of refraction with the liquid. In other words, they vanish like magic! As you’ll see, there’s more to this experiment than meets the eye.

However, our goldenrod paper contains a special dye that turns bright red when exposed to solutions that are basic, like ammonia water or washing soda. We’ll show you how to use this special color-changing paper to develop a hidden message and make dripping, bleeding paper… complete with your own handprint marked in “blood.” It’s a great acid/base lesson for the Halloween season.

    Light Sticks – Cool Halloween Science

    Just give the plastic light stick a little “snap” and a shake and the liquid inside begins to glow. Some people call it liquid light. Our experience tells us that with light comes heat… but not this time. Light sticks are more popular than ever and have become almost required apparel for Halloween to cast an eerie glow on the candy seekers. Light sticks are also a great and inexpensive teaching tool for students to learn how temperature affects the rate of the chemical reaction.
