NASA is bringing smartphones to space! 🚀

Astronauts will now use smartphones in space, capturing spontaneous photos from the ISS and lunar orbit.

Crew-12 and Artemis II astronauts can now use iPhones and Android devices for spontaneous photos and videos, making space exploration more personal than ever. 🌌📱

NASA is taking a bold step into the digital age by allowing astronauts on the Crew-12 mission to the International Space Station (ISS) and the Artemis II lunar flyby to carry smartphones. This marks a major shift from relying solely on bulky, decade-old DSLRs and GoPros. By embracing commercial devices like iPhones and Androids, NASA aims to enhance mission documentation, streamline technology approvals, and make space exploration more relatable for the public.
