We had a great time at MAX POWER — and made a lot of news! We're recruiting a new class of astronauts, making major advancements on the Moon Base, and challenging students to a $1 million design competition. Catch up with everything we announced at the festival: nasa.gov/general/max-power-n…

What a day at MAX POWER! From the incredible pilots and performers at @airdotshow to the NASA team showcasing what American aviation and space exploration can achieve, there was no shortage of talent and inspiration at @NASAKennedy today. Thousands came out to experience it firsthand, and hopefully a few future aviators and astronauts left inspired to dream bigger. We have more big things ahead today with @capeweek_us!

Apollo legend astronaut Charlie Duke was the first astronaut I ever met, back when I was in high school. He answered my eager questions and even replied to my typewritten letter. I still have it and even brought it along on my first mission to the @Space_Station! Thanks for the inspiration Charlie - wonderful to see you at @NASA Max Power! nasa.gov/maxpower/

Coming up soon, a @NASAMoonBase update at the MAX POWER event hangar & main stage located in the UP.Summit area. There is also a nice display of what a moon base might look like and include in the same venue! Work to prepare the moonbase is already underway between @NASA and many commercial space companies, from launch and landing systems, to rovers, power generation, cryogenic propellant long-term storage & a lot more so when @NASAArtemis IV lands with astronauts (currently targeting late 2028), a lot of equipment, infrastructure and more will already be there. Here’s a quick video clip & images!

The shadow of the person holding the model is barely visible, the grass is green beside a gravel walking path, and the sky is blue with a few wispy clouds.
