One year ago today, the Sun unleashed a torrent of eruptions that caused the biggest geomagnetic storm in over two decades. Auroras filled the skies as far south as Mexico! 🤩 But the storm’s impacts reached even farther and wider than you might think. Here’s some of what https://t.co/dbJgaUunO3

From the microwave-sized Sojourner to the SUV-sized Perseverance—and even taking flight with the Ingenuity helicopter—NASA's Martian robots reflect decades of innovation. This is their evolution. Ride along with today's missions and those to come: https://t.co/hOtIWG33dD https://t.co/vsINZWM36K

What shapes do YOU see? Samples 6 and 7 included some interesting patterns — but even more interesting chemistry. https://t.co/DbeVauOO5h

Making tracks: From its vantage point in space, the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter again captured the @MarsCuriosity rover, this time in mid-drive. The combination of eyes in the sky and wheels on the ground has helped us reveal the planet in new ways. https://t.co/Mz486G2FAV https://t.co/N3QUK2g8PH

Did you ever collect rocks? 💎 The @NASAPersevere rover has gathered the ultimate rock collection — one that could reveal answers to the biggest mysteries of Mars. Here's a tour of the samples the rover has collected so far & the stories they may tell 🧵https://t.co/xPqSfD1VkZ https://t.co/ndb9ugyKTh

Not that they haven't captured some amazing shots of the sky, like this @MarsCuriosity view of Mars' moon Phobos, alongside a star-like Earth! https://t.co/CYXlYb4NQh https://t.co/FCZNW7VDKj

#OTD in 2001, NASA set out on one of its most enduring odysseys: the Mars Odyssey orbiter made the first global mineral map of the planet's surface. Nearly a quarter-century later, it's still doing science and acting as a comms relay for ground operations https://t.co/lzqLRZjj9B https://t.co/qJ37VdiG3z

Hi, Mars! 👋 In Hubble's 12th year, the telescope got a great look of the Red Planet when it was 43 million miles from Earth – the closest it'd been since 1988. This view shows white water-ice clouds and a large amount of swirling orange dust storms: https://t.co/G2IsWwgOOb https://t.co/OdV09Ea1xK

Future explorers, know before you go: NASA's Mars rovers have scouted the landscape, measured radiation and other environmental conditions, and tested pulling oxygen from the atmosphere. @NASAPerservere also carries test swatches of spacesuit materials. https://t.co/C9ZbbLXP4O https://t.co/Hkcsvrxhf0

Scientists studying samples aboard the @MarsCuriosity rover have found the largest organic compounds on Mars so far. This raises intriguing possibilities in the search for past life – and bodes well for plans to bring @NASAPersevere's samples to Earth. https://t.co/LiXs4y1MZ2 https://t.co/njZgUbd2x7

It's almost spring in Earth's Northern Hemisphere. On Mars, spring brings avalanches to the north polar ice deposits. Our Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter captured this one in the act of plunging down a 1,640-foot-tall (500-meter-tall) cliff. https://t.co/QOf30lrvkC https://t.co/L4muwuw0aA
