Since 1950 the world has produced more than 8 billion tonnes of plastic.
Where did it go? 👇

Truly fascinating. I zoomed in with my Mastcam-Z camera on a Phobos solar eclipse. This detailed video can help scientists on my team better understand the Martian moon’s orbit and how its gravity affects the interior of Mars, including its crust & mantle. go.nasa.gov/3OqRl73

If you could fly airplanes in space, Earth > Moon would be a 16-day flight. Earth to Mars would be a 7-year flight. And it would take 17 years to fly to the Sun.

A topic where I see one of the biggest gaps between public opinion & recommendations from scientists is palm oil 🌴🦧
Companies often boycott palm oil to look sustainable to consumers. But a ban is rarely the recommendation from experts.
