We are an ad hoc group that has formed on an emergency basis to save NASA from devastating cuts which wouldn't just shrink NASA, but would truly alter it. We are members of the public acting with our personal voice, not representing NASA or our employers.

🚀 New tool alert: Track NASA science mission funding month by month. The White House proposed deep cuts, but Congress hasn’t decided yet — leaving missions in limbo. Compare this year’s spending to last year’s and spot early drops that could mean trouble.

Hi there! That would be a lens flare, a visual effect in which light scatters or reflects inside a camera lens, appearing as spots, streaks, or a general haze in an image.

This is supernova remnant SNR 0509-67.5: The expanding debris of a star that exploded centuries ago in a rare double-detonation.

It is the first photo evidence that a star can end its life with two blasts.

It shouldn’t have to be said, but instructions from the OMB to add this to an official government site is NOT OK (or professional, honestly.)

Fascinating: NGC 1501, a planetary nebula 5000 light-years away, hosts a rare variable star—its exposed central core pulses in brightness every 30 minutes.

The JWST had a new look into the IC348 star forming region last year, and here's my processed image of that observation! 🔭

IC348 is located some 1,000 light years away from us and is made of hundreds of new stars born there.

A focus on a star forming region seen in infrared light. Hundreds of white dots, big and small ones, can be seen everywhere in the image as they are stars! A lot of gas can be seen in the image, covering almost every part of it. This gas is what is helping the new stars to be formed there. In the upper left part, multiple jets can be spotted: they are stars being born at this very moment! A lot of background galaxies can also be spotted in the whole image

Don't comply in advance.

We are watching people in fear trying to avoid pain by censoring themselves and changing their behavior before being compelled to.

Following rules of a group is pro-social behavior that is dangerous now. How can you resist this urge as a law-abiding citizen? A quick 🧵

When Neil Armstong spoke from the moon, ‘That’s was one small step for man…’ the world assumed he meant a step forward, but to NASA supporters Trump is taking NASA a giant leap back. Story and Video:

Inspiring rally at #NASA HQ today to call on Congress to fully fund NASA and other federal agencies, to call on NASA leadership to stop slashing programs, and to demand union rights for NASA workers and all federal workers. Let's go! 🔭🌕🌏 @nasa-needs-help.bsky.social
