Ever feel like someone's watching you?
That's how I felt when I observed this transit of the Martian moon Phobos! The pupil in this "googly eye" is the potato-shaped moon, and the iris is our Sun. Learn more: go.nasa.gov/48vJm3m

Have you ever tried to climb up a steep, slippery slope? Yeah, it's not easy!
To reduce slippage on my way to the Jezero Crater rim, my team has had to test a few strategies, including driving backwards! More on my progress and what lies ahead: go.nasa.gov/4i0Q5Gv

The beauty of Mars lies in its details. I'm pretty proud of this rock collection, carefully curated by me and my team – and now available for you to view in 4K ✨ https://twitter.com/NASAJPL/status/1865090429991219384#m

Status update: I've reached the rim of Jezero Crater!
The ascent took 3.5 months and included 1,640 feet (500 m) of vertical climb. It was steep and slippery — but I'm built to do hard things.
Next up? My 5th science campaign, the Northern Rim. go.nasa.gov/49Bn4xr

In July, I spotted and sampled “Cheyava Falls,” a vein-filled rock that has some indications it may have hosted ancient microscopic life billions of years ago.
Further research is needed, but here's what we know now: go.nasa.gov/3WDv6kH

Now that I've completed my climb out of Jezero Crater, I'm back to: #SamplingMars!
My 26th sample, known as "Silver Mountain," has textures unlike anything we've seen before. I've sealed the rock core in a sample tube so it can be analyzed in labs on Earth in the future.

Did you know: When I landed on Feb. 18, 2021, Mars and Earth were 127 million miles apart. Today, because of our unique orbits, we're 73 million miles apart.
That means your birthday wishes will get to me nearly 5 minutes faster today! 🥳

Hey @EuropaClipper, thanks for swinging by the Red Planet! You were here for a gravity assist; I’m here for rock collecting—teamwork makes the interplanetary dream work as we seek to unlock the secrets of life beyond Earth.
Wish you could've stayed for longer. Safe journeys!

These dust devils may look strong, but not to worry: In the thin atmosphere of Mars, it feels more like a gust of wind.

Hello from the rim of Jezero Crater 👋
I’ve hit my fastest science-collection tempo yet, sampling three rocks since January and analyzing dozens more. One might even be 3.9 billion years old!
So, what’s next? More exploration at Witch Hazel Hill. go.nasa.gov/3FYmcbp
