You said it, @NASAMars. For perspective, here’s what Earth looks like from the surface of Mars. Shine on!pic.twitter.com/jn0egTQG72

Earlier this year, Hubble captured these amazing views of Jupiter and Saturn. You’ll also get a great view of these planets in the night sky as they come together for the #GreatConjunction! @NASAVoyager, don’t you have some Jupiter and Saturn images, too?pic.twitter.com/GRtOocchNx

Do I! Here are close-up shots of Jupiter from my flyby in '79 and Saturn in '80. Near or far, these planets sure are beauties.pic.twitter.com/5gYBcUxUJG

Yes! Jupiter and Saturn appear to pass each other in the Great Conjunction. When a planet passes in front of a distant star, it’s called an occultation. These eclipse-like events let us study the atmospheres of planets like Pluto without leaving Earth: https://www.nasa.gov/feature/sofia-finds-clues-hidden-in-pluto-s-haze/ …pic.twitter.com/mZyEVyxSdz

Without leaving the planet, you can use @NASAEyes to change your point of view. See Earth, Jupiter and Saturn moving in real time: http://eyes.nasa.gov/apps/orrery/#/home … #GreatConjunctionpic.twitter.com/K1a23wpjUB

Eyes on Exoplanets lets users select their locations on Earth and look up at the stars, planets and constellations. You can even find Saturn and Jupiter to see how close they are! @NASAPersevere will use a star tracker, too! https://go.nasa.gov/2Wzub4F pic.twitter.com/jhuPG2Is3Q

Indeed. Star trackers help missions like me know our place in space. By keeping a close watch on celestial bodies, I’ll make my rendezvous with Mars in February. Follow my journey and enjoy the view: http://eyes.nasa.gov/apps/orrery/#/sc_perseverance …pic.twitter.com/S9OM5tOZHw
