A screenshot of the "The Farthest" title art. The text is in a narrow font over an inky black background full of stars and part of the milky way. A rendering of voyager sits prominently in the center.

As I’m laid up with COVID I finally had a chance to watch “The Farthest” documentary on PBS. It covers the Voyager project from the very beginning to the piercing of the heliosphere as Voyager entered interstellar space. Really great interviews and emotional highs and lows of one of the most incredible things humans have done (all with technology from 1972).

You can watch it directly on PBS’s site: https://www.pbs.org/the-farthest/

My name spelled out with satellite imagery from all over the planet.

Fun little thing from NASA. Spell out your name (or any word) with Landsat imagery! https://landsat.gsfc.nasa.gov/apps/YourNameInLandsat-main/  #nasa #science #landsat

This is by far the best map I’ve found for the eclipse! https://eclipse-explorer.smce.nasa.gov/

Far Out 🚁
For this third flight, the #MarsHelicopter traveled almost half the length of a football field and increased its airspeed to 4.5 mph (2 m/sec). Until now, Ingenuity had not flown at this speed, even while testing on Earth. https://t.co/TNCdXWcKWE pic.twitter.com/S65oIeQ4BC

One of the things we’ve always had to imagine has been recorded and sent back to us from Mars. The Perseverance landing video that @NASAJPL shared today is just awesome. I can’t wait to see everything from this and future missions. @NASAPersevere #countdowntomars
