It took several days to count every ballot in 2020, and it’s very likely we won’t know the outcome tonight either. So please keep a few things in mind as you make your voice heard today: – Thousands of election workers around the country are working hard today. Respect them. Thank them.  – Don’t share things before checking your sources.  – Let the process run its course. It takes time to count every ballot.

The @NASA Artemis II crewed mission around the Moon will inspire the next generation of explorers, and show every child – in America, in Canada, and across the world – that if they can dream it, they can be it.

#Artemis I is being controlled @NASA_Johnson by specialists who have trained for years to execute this vital test flight to the Moon in the Artemis program. They’re doing that work under flight directors who have the responsibility to execute the mission safely and successfully.

.@BoeingSpace put together a nice article about the OFT-2 Starliner mission and the role the Boeing Mission Operations team played. #humbledandhonored
The #Starliner team is grateful to have @Carbon_Flight, @Saturn_Flight, Redstone Flight and Lion Flight bring their expertise to future @Commercial_Crew missions through this unique agreement. Learn more about the flight directors who fly Starliner: boeing.com/features/2022/07/…

I had the honor of being flight director for multiple missions including STS-112 in 2002. NASA is looking for leaders for one of the best jobs on Earth for human spaceflight – including missions to the Moon – flight director! Apply here: go.nasa.gov/3ltYoPO

What an incredibly special day for so many people after years of difficult and challenging work. For @AstroBehnken and I, it was the end of a successful test flight and our part of @Space_Station Expedition 63. Thanks @SpaceX and @Commercial_Crew for making it all possible.
One year ago today, the Crew Dragon Endeavour spacecraft splashed down in the Gulf of Mexico, successfully completing the Demo-2 mission, as SpaceX successfully launched NASA astronauts from American soil and returned them safely to Earth. 📷: NASA/Bill Ingalls

Just days before Ginsburg's death, as her strength waned, she dictated this statement to her granddaughter: "My most fervent wish is that I will not be replaced until a new president is installed." npr.org/2020/09/18/100306972…

From 250 miles above the Earth, Expedition 63 is aware of the hard times that exist in the neighborhoods of the world rotating below. Even amid the uncertainty & difficulties, we encourage everyone to be the best “crewmates” & take care of each other. Cherish the people you love.

Welcome home, @AstroBehnken and @Astro_Doug! We launched the Commercial Crew program to strengthen our U.S. space program and it's been great to see its success. This historic NASA-SpaceX mission is a symbol of what American ingenuity and inventiveness can achieve.
