For 250 years, America has inspired generations to dream bigger, aim higher, and explore farther.  Yesterday was a celebration of that enduring spirit and a reminder that our greatest adventures are still ahead.  Happy Independence Day, America. 🇺🇸

Happy 250th birthday America! As a nation, we have so much history to celebrate, and at @NASA, we are just getting started. God bless the USA 🇺🇸

Happy 250th birthday, America! We got you a present. 🇺🇸 The red, white, and blue stars of this globular cluster shine like a sparkler waved on a dark night in this image from @NASAHubble, released in celebration of the United States' 250th anniversary.

The Artemis II crew is coming to the Great American State Fair! 🚀 @Astro_Reid, @AstroVicGlover, @Astro_Christina, and @Astro_Jeremy will take the Freedom Stage on July 4 at 2pm ET. Don’t miss your chance to hear from the astronauts who recently flew around the Moon!

Happy 250th, America! 🇺🇸 Red (Mars), white (Moon), and blue (Earth) brought to you by the solar system.

What will it take to build the @NASAMoonBase? Stop by the NASA Exhibit in the Innovation Pavilion at the Great American State Fair to learn about the technologies, missions, and innovations that will help future explorers live and work on the lunar surface.

Here’s to 250 years of American ingenuity! 🇺🇸 Launching as early as August, @NASARoman is set to transform how we explore the cosmos. Its sweeping surveys will reveal billions of cosmic objects and help write the next chapter of U.S. space leadership. go.nasa.gov/4fdNtWu

Behold, Roman. For the first time since arriving in Florida, NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is on full display after being unboxed and raised to its vertical position inside the high bay. And what a sight she is! 🤩

There will be more than just fireworks to see in the night sky this month! You can look forward to these celestial sights in July: - A lunar-planetary alignment - A visiting comet - A good look at Saturn and the Milky Way Happy skywatching! go.nasa.gov/4whiJtl

Do you want to "Roman" space with Launch Services Program (LSP)? LSP manages the launch services for NASA's Roman Space Telescope and is based here at Kennedy Space Center in the iconic Neil Armstrong Operations and Checkout Building and Hangar AE at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station! Submit your name at go.nasa.gov/RomanNames to join them! Submissions close on July 12. Launch is targeted for Aug. 30 on a SpaceX Falcon Heavy from Launch Complex 39A!

Have you looked up what our @NASAHubble telescope saw on your birthday? Our popular page has a new look — and now, you can use it to find five stellar sights that Hubble was observing on whatever day you choose. Check it out: go.nasa.gov/4xZJ5Sk

For 250 years, America has pushed the boundaries of what’s possible. From the invention of the airplane to the first steps on the Moon and the missions shaping tomorrow, NASA embodies the fearless spirit of discovery that defines our Nation. As we celebrate America's 250th with @Freedom250, we honor the innovation, courage, and scientific leadership that have propelled America forward. NASA continues to expand the frontier for the next generation. 🚀 The countdown to America’s 250th starts now. Just 3 days to go.

LIVE: More missions. More momentum. More exploration. We have a @NASAMoonBase update! Listen in as we discuss our plans to establish a long-term human presence on the Moon. x.com/i/broadcasts/1qxvvvngN…

Three words: More. Moon. Deliveries. 🌕✨ Join us live at 2:30 p.m. ET as @NASAAdmin Jared Isaacman announces the next lunar lander mission awards and shares the latest on NASA's plans to build a Moon Base. nasa.gov/news-release/nasa-t…

"The technology is always moving forward, and a new challenge is going to arise,” Eric Fernandez said. “But there’s nothing we haven’t conquered, and there’s not a problem we haven’t figured out yet.” Find out how his journey took him from watching rockets as a child to becoming a telemetry engineer with NASA, making sure the team has the data they need to launch rockets. go.nasa.gov/4wfG1Qk

Send your name a million miles from Earth. NASA’s Roman Telescope is headed to Lagrange Point 2, a spot where gravity balances just right, giving spacecraft a steady, unobstructed view of the universe. Join the journey to add your name to fly with Roman! go.nasa.gov/4oz99Q4

Artemis III is coming together, piece by piece. The second of four RS-25 rocket engines was recently offloaded at @NASAKennedy. These rocket engines will power the Space Launch System rocket during the launch of Artemis III, propelling the Orion spacecraft into Earth orbit.

🚀Two missions, three rockets. NASA has selected @RocketLab to launch two science missions in 2027 on three Electron rockets from Launch Complex 1 in New Zealand. Two launches will send the twin CubeSats for PolSIR to study tropical ice clouds. A single rocket will launch TSIS‑2 to measure the Sun’s energy reaching Earth. Learn more here: go.nasa.gov/4xKVRUR

What's next for @NASAMoonBase? Join us on Tuesday, June 30 at 2:30pm ET (1830 UTC) for a live news event where we'll share updates on our plans for lunar exploration and the next steps toward establishing an enduring human presence on the Moon. go.nasa.gov/4wcDoPu

This could be your Roman empire. Apply to join us for a NASA Social at @NASAKennedy as we launch the @NASARoman Space Telescope on Aug. 30. Experience the launch firsthand, and help us tell the story of NASA's spectacular new space explorer. go.nasa.gov/4a9LEap
