National Aeronautics and Space Administrion

Since its inception in 1958, NASA has accomplished many great scientific and technological feats in air and space. NASA technology also has been adapted for many nonaerospace uses by the private sector. NASA remains a leading force in scientific research and in stimulating public interest in aerospace exploration, as well as science and technology in general. Perhaps more importantly, our exploration of space has taught us to view Earth, ourselves, and the universe in a new way. While the tremendous technical and scientific accomplishments of NASA demonstrate vividly that humans can achieve previously inconceivable feats, we also are humbled by the realization that Earth is just a tiny "blue marble" in the cosmos. Check out our "Thinking About NASA History" folder online as an introduction to how history can help you.

Alternate Realities or Parallel Universes


These are self-contained, co-existing with one’s own. Multiverses are groups of universes. This is only fantasy now, but what if there was a parallel universe born with every choice we make, and ever have made. In fact right now as I write this and as you read this it is ultimately possible that you are creating endless amounts of parallel universes within a multiverse of possibilities.

This idea is found throughout mythology as well as books, sci-fi as well as others. In dark fantasy or horror it is often the place for hiding things. In Narnia, this is the place where a whole other life is lived.
