Let's end this Black History Month with a bang! An accomplished jazz saxophonist, Ronald E. McNair was the second African-American to make a flight to outer space, where he was also the first astronaut to play a musical instrument in space in 1984!

Happy New Year! Pop the bubbly and let's celebrate! Here's a little #FlashbackFriday to us celebrating in 2019! #HappyNewYear #Goodbye2020 #Hello2021
1 year ago we began operating out of our new facility in Riverdale, MD. Give us a like if you visited our original location in Suite 102 in College Park, MD! #oldoffice #nostalgia #Aerothreads #MLI #multilayerinsulation #spacecrafters
There are over 170 billion galaxies in the universe, but we will not see them all. We will never see objects beyond the "future visibility limit" because the light emitted would never reach us. #AstronomyFactoftheWeek (Courtesy of loom.ly/PSOejtU) 📸 ESO/S. Brunier
