The year started off with a thank you and farewell to my partner in exploration, Ingenuity. https://t.co/r2etSFdNjt https://t.co/rqlYcxbKMh

Reflecting on another Earth year – from Mars!

From saying goodbye to my pal Ingenuity to reaching the rim of Jezero Crater after a long, treacherous climb... Here are some of my biggest moments of 2024. 🧵

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. https://t.co/zqKkxMpCDT https://t.co/FpkEHmwpgc

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 ✨

Wishing you a spellbinding "sol"-iday from the Red Planet 👻

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: https://t.co/jUYoXY1jpK https://t.co/7izVWOHEPH

Looking back to see how far I’ve come.

As I continue to climb to the Jezero Crater rim, I stopped to take in the view and saw everything from my landing spot to the backup samples I left on the surface.
