- New Horizons is the first mission to the Kuiper Belt, a giant zone of icy bodies and mysterious small objects orbiting beyond Neptune. This region also known as the "Third" zone of our solar system, beyond the inner rocky planets and outer gas giants. John Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, in Maryland, designed, built and operates the Bew Horizons space craft and manages the mission for NASA's Science Missions directorate in Washington. The Year of Pluto - NASA New Horizon is a one hour documentary that takes on the hard science and gives us the answers to how the mission came about and why it matters. New Horizons is part of the New Frontiers Program managed by NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama.
- STEM in 30 is an online science educational program for middle school students produced by the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum. Each episode features special guests and different science, math, engineering or technology topics.
- Explore the expanses of space.
- Explore the rich history of NASA's greatest moments and achievements.
- Life aboard the International Space Station.
- Take a look at our own celestial backyard.
- A fun look at the history, future, and importance of NASA's RS-25 Engine. The Engine that will help take NASA back to the Moon, and beyond to Mars.
- Today, space debris has become the nightmare of telecommunications operators and space agencies. Since the beginning of the conquest of space at the end of the 1950s, the number of spacecraft launches has multiplied. Many of them, now useless, wander above the Earth and sometimes collide. Satellites carrying nuclear charges, stages or tanks of launchers have already fallen back to Earth, without causing any casualties until now. Faced with the danger, space actors are now constantly monitoring the clouds of waste, ready to divert their satellites or installations in an emergency.
- A film showing what a possible trip to Mars using a Rover might look like.
- Step behind the scenes of NASA development.
- The fourth planet from the Sun.
- This film documents the first historic flight of a space shuttle, the U.S. spacecraft Columbia, which launched on April 12, 1981. The footage highlights liftoff as well as the landing in Rogers Dry Lake bed in California.
- Fifty years ago, humans took their first steps on the Moon. On July 19, 2019, NASA presented a live salute to our Apollo 50th heroes and looked forward to our next giant leap for future Artemis missions to the Moon and Mars.
- A 360-degree immersive virtual reality (VR) viewing experience, featuring exclusive astronaut training footage from NASA's Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory (NBL) in Houston, Texas. The stunning NASA VR/360 video, produced by Harmonic, offers a variety of perspectives - in the pool and out - as astronauts complete space-walk training for future missions to the International Space Station (ISS).
- Twenty years ago astronomers discovered the first planet around a sun-like star, 51 Pegasi b. This is the story of the pioneers in planet-hunting and how those who have followed are closer to answering one of humanity's most ancient questions: Is there life elsewhere in the universe?
- Just after midnight on January 1st 2019, a NASA spacecraft whizzed past the most distant space rock that's ever been visited in our Solar System. This remote interplanetary flyby will be over in a blink. But if successful, the event could tell us a whole lot about the objects that dominate the far reaches of our cosmic neighborhood. The robotic spacecraft making this daring visit is called New Horizons, and it's been traveling through space for 13 years, the first human-made object to ever visit Pluto in the summer of 2015. Three years later, it's ready to meet up with Ultima Thule located 1 billion miles beyond Pluto. That's 4.1 billion miles from Earth, the size of New York City, orbiting in an area of the Solar System known as the Kuiper Belt. This region of space, located beyond the orbit of Neptune,
- The COral Reef Airborne Laboratory (CORAL) mission will survey a portion of the world's coral reefs to assess the condition of these threatened ecosystems and understand their relation to the environment. CORAL will use advanced airborne instruments, including the Portable Remote Imaging Spectrometer (PRISM), and in-water measurements. The investigation will assess the reefs of Palau, the Mariana Islands, portions of Australia's Great Barrier Reef and Hawaii beginning in 2016. With new understanding of reef condition, the future of this global ecosystem can be predicted.
- Something happened 100 years ago that changed forever the way we fly, the way we explore space and how we study our home planet. That something was the establishment of what is now NASA's Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia, which commemorates its 100th anniversary on July 17, 2017. Astronaut Neil Armstrong, the first human to step foot on the moon and who learned how to do so by training at Langley said, "If a competition were held to determine the organization that had accomplished the largest number of advancements to aeronautic and aerospace progress, my nomination would be this place."
- NASA and industry are studying technology that will reduce the noise associated with sonic booms to the point where aircraft flying over populated areas at supersonic speeds do not disturb the peace.
- A group of kids come back from Trick-or-Treating, and are excited to find they have received a lot of NASA Candy - all except one of them.
- On October 23, 2014 Sandra Cauffman was invited to talk at the TEDx PuraVidaJoven at the National Auditorium in San Jose, Costa Rica, where she was born. Her story is how a Costa Rican girl from a poor family nurtured an improbable dream about space travel, and despite the obstacles, made that dream come true. Sandra's determination and perseverance fueled her ability to achieve what many people thought she should not even consider. Sandra Cauffman is currently the GOES-R Deputy System Program Director at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. Her previous role as Deputy Project Manager for the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN) Mission, was a NASA mission which launched to the red planet on November of 2013. A four-time recipient of the NASA Acquisition Improvement Award, Sandra has been awarded the NASA Exceptional Achievement Medal and the NASA Exceptional Leadership Medal. She is a Senior Fellow on the Council for Excellence in Government. Sandra received a B.S. in Physics, a B.S in Electrical Engineering and a M.S. in Electrical Engineering, all from George Mason University.
- Follows the Apollo 16 NASA mission. From preparations, to the launch, to the exploration of the moons surface by astronauts.
- On this episode of The Rocket Ranch Podcast, we remember Challenger, her crew, and their survivors, and how we carry forward the lessons NASA learned with the director of the Apollo Challenger Columbia Lessons Learned Program. NASA's vision is to educate the public about important lessons to help others avoid accidents.
