Make a wish! 😉
The 30th June marks Asteroid Day, which aims to emphasise the importance of asteroids –their role in the formation of our solar system, their impact in space resources and the importance of defending our planet from future impacts. This year we are celebrating along with @UniversalPictures for the release of Wes Anderson’s new movie Asteroid City to bring you all the information you need to know about asteroids and how we protect our planet from them. #AsteroidCityxAsteroidDay #AsteroidDay2023

Perseid meteor shower on NASA TV
On August 12, meteor experts from NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center provided commentary during NASA Television’s live coverage of the annual Perseid meteor shower. The Perseids have been observed for at least 2,000 years and are associated with the comet Swift-Tuttle, which orbits the sun once every 133 years. Every August, the Earth passes through a cloud of the comet’s debris. This debris field consists of bits of ice and dust — most over 1,000 years old — and burns up in Earth’s atmosphere to create one of the best meteor showers of the year.
