- During their historic ten-day, record-breaking flyby of the moon earlier this year, the Artemis II crew lived in incredibly cramped quarters, but this proximity also led to camaraderie. In a never-before-seen clip, recorded on cameras Nat Geo sent along on the voyage, Commander Reid Wiseman and Mission Specialist Jeremy Hansen reflected on the beauty of the moon's surface following their first night of observation, as well as the touching moment when the crew suggested naming a lunar crater after Wiseman's late wife, Carroll.

- A fish has been documented appearing to hold its breath—but it's not the only marine animal to do it. Hammerhead sharks also hold their breath to conserve heat while hunting, and National Geographic Explorer Arzucan Askin says this unique ability could be useful in other ways.
- After sunset, thousands of stars emerge across the sky above Big Bend National Park. Darkness is hard to measure definitively, but Texas’s largest national park sits within the world’s biggest certified dark sky area—the 15,000-square-mile (38,850 square-kilometer) Greater Big Bend International Dark Sky Reserve. This is one of the finest places in the country to see the Milky Way, offering nighttime visitors a star-spangled sky much as it looked 250 years ago. With the 250th anniversary of U.S. independence quickly approaching, we're celebrating the grandest, wildest, and strangest bits of American geography and culture across every state and territory. Discover more Wonders of America at the 🔗 in bio.

- At the New England Aquarium in Boston, Massachusetts, members of the African penguin colony are living up to two-and-a-half times longer than the 10 to 15 years they reach in the wild. So what happens when they reach an advanced age? They move to a "retirement island" away from the larger colony where they can enjoy a quieter life complete with physical therapy, mental enrichment, and, of course, plenty of fish. Experience a day in the life of Boston's geriatric penguins at the 🔗 in bio.
- The A.D. 79 eruption of Mount Vesuvius that ravaged Pompeii also buried the nearby town of Herculaneum, entombing its celebrated library at the Villa of the Papyri. Buried beneath 60 feet of ash and rock, the papyrus scrolls within baked into brittle, misshapen lumps—preserved yet so fragile that archaeologists feared touching them. Now, nearly 2,000 years after the Vesuvian tragedy, the scrolls are giving up their secrets at last. Using particle accelerators and artificial intelligence, researchers finally have the ability to virtually “unwrap” the Herculaneum scrolls and read their contents. National Geographic got a first look at what they say, including one scroll that's potentially among the oldest in Roman history. Learn what researchers have deciphered so far at the 🔗 in bio.

- Deep beneath the waves off Costa Rica's coast, scientists not only discovered a new species of octopus but also a nursery where over 100 Dorado octopuses tend their eggs near hydrothermal vents. 🐙 #SecretsOfTheOctopus is streaming on @disneyplus and @hulu.
- Depending on the species, baby sharks may be born live or hatch from eggs—and for some of these pups, the threat of survival starts long before they've reached the ocean. Conservation scientist and National Geographic Explorer Arzucan Askin explores the different, extraordinary first stages of a shark's life.
- Buoyed by a thick layer of fat and a coat that helps retain warmth, polar bears stay afloat with ease, a quality that makes them powerful swimmers in the Arctic. But as sea ice continues to shrink, these mammals are being pushed into the water more often—like in this moment captured by @mywildlive.
- Oceanic manta rays are among the largest fishes in the ocean, but nobody knows where they go with their rare and infrequent pregnancies. This footage—depicting one of the first recorded contactless ultrasounds confirming pregnancy and observing the developmental stage in wild oceanic mantas—is helping unravel the mystery. By identifying and tracking expectant mothers, marine biologists hope to better understand the vulnerable species' slow reproductive cycle and how to better protect them. Learn more about this incredible moment at the 🔗 in bio.
