  • Work Underway on Large Cargo Landers for NASA?s Artemis Moon Missions
    Under NASA?s Artemis campaign, the agency and its partners will send large pieces of equipment to the lunar surface to enable long-term scientific exploration of the Moon for the benefit of all. NASA?s human landing system providers, SpaceX and Blue Origin, are beginning development of lunar landers for large cargo deliveries to support these needs. […]

  • Slovenia Signs Artemis Accords, Joins Pursuit of Safer Space
    NASA and Slovenia affirmed their cooperation in future space endeavors on Friday as Slovenia became the 39th country to sign the Artemis Accords. The signing certified Slovenia?s commitment to pursue safe and sustainable exploration of space for the benefit of humanity and took place during a U.S.-Slovenia strategic dialogue in Ljubljana, Slovenia, at the Ministry […]

  • NASA Data Helps Beavers Build Back Streams
    Humans aren?t the only mammals working to mitigate the effects of climate change in the Western United States. People there are also enlisting the aid of nature?s most prolific engineers ? beavers. Using NASA-provided grants, two open-source programs from Boise State University in Idaho and Utah State University in Logan are making it possible for […]

  • Looking Beyond the Veil
    In this image released on March 9, 2024, the NIRCam (Near-Infrared Camera) on NASA?s James Webb Space Telescope gives us a more detailed view of a well-studied but still mysterious region, NGC 604. The most noticeable features are tendrils and clumps of emission that appear bright red, extending out from areas that look like clearings, […]

  • NASA, FAA Partner to Develop New Wildland Fire Technologies�
    NASA and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) have established a research transition team to guide the development of wildland fire technology.  Wildland fires are occurring more frequently and at a larger scale than in past decades, according to the U.S. Forest Service. Emergency responders will need a broader set of technologies to prevent, monitor, and […]

  • Join NASA in Celebrating Earth Day 2024 by Sharing a #GlobalSelfie

While NASA satellites constantly look at Earth from space, on Earth Day we’re asking you to step outside and take a picture of yourself in your corner of the […]

  • NASA Selects New Aircraft-Driven Studies of Earth and Climate Change
    NASA has selected six new airborne missions that include domestic and international studies of fire-induced clouds, Arctic coastal change, air quality, landslide hazards, shrinking glaciers, and emissions from agricultural lands. NASA?s suite of airborne missions complement what scientists can see from orbit, measure from the ground, and simulate in computer models. � Funded through the [?]

  • Hubble Captures a Bright Galactic and Stellar Duo
    This image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope features NGC 3783, a bright barred�spiral galaxy�about 130 million light-years from Earth that also lends its name to the eponymous NGC 3783 galaxy group. Like galaxy clusters, galaxy groups are aggregates of gravitationally bound�galaxies. Galaxy groups, however, are less massive and contain fewer members than galaxy clusters [?]

  • Students Celebrate Rockets, Environment at NASA?s Kennedy Space Center
    At NASA?s Kennedy Space Center, sustainability and preservation efforts here on Earth are as much of a priority as rocket launches, spacecraft, and the exploration of worlds beyond our own. In celebration of Earth Day 2024, nearly 100 students from Andrew Jackson Middle School in Titusville, Florida, and a virtual audience of students across the […]

  • AI for Earth: How NASA?s Artificial Intelligence and Open Science Efforts Combat Climate Change
    As extreme weather events increase around the world due to climate change, the need for further research into our warming planet has increased as well. For NASA, climate research involves not only conducting studies of these events, but also empowering outside researchers to do the same. The artificial intelligence (AI) efforts spearheaded by the agency [?]
