AND THAT'S A WRAP! SOFIA's flights are over, but its legacy lives on. This month FLEW by. We hope you enjoyed learning with us! Though our flight operations are ending, we will continue to share exciting science with you. #SOFIAFinalFlight

This isn't just a plane. It's so much more. The world’s largest flying observatory is entering retirement. Learn about the legacy of our SOFIA mission: go.nasa.gov/3BVgGRp

🏠 Home, home on Lagrange! We successfully completed our burn to start #NASAWebb on its orbit of the 2nd Lagrange point (L2), about a million miles (1.5 million km) from Earth. It will orbit the Sun, in line with Earth, as it orbits L2. blogs.nasa.gov/webb/2022/01/… #UnfoldTheUniverse

Animation: Webb Pan Past at L2 Point

This animation illustrates the location of Webb's destination, the second Lagrange point: It shows Earth in the mid-ground, and the Sun in the background.

Sorry for the shade, @NASASun, @NASAMoon & @NASAEarth! But you're just not cool enough 😎 Now fully deployed, our sunshield blocks your heat & light so that our mirrors will be able to detect faint heat signals in the universe: go.nasa.gov/3sXp6ov #UnfoldTheUniverse

✅ Milestone achieved. @NASAWebb is safely in space, powered on, and communicating with ground controllers. The space telescope is now on its way to #UnfoldTheUniverse at its final destination one million miles (1.5 million km) away from Earth.

"Endeavour arriving!" Welcome to the @Space_Station, Crew-2! Their arrival means there are now 11 humans aboard our orbiting laboratory, a number not seen since the space shuttle era. Hugs abound.

We detected water on the Moon’s sunlit surface for the first time! This suggests water may be distributed across the lunar surface, and not limited to cold, shadowed places. Tune in live to learn more: nasa.gov/nasalive
