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.

You have been stranded alone on Mars. You have food and shelter, but won't be rescued for another six months. How are you feeling? What do you miss most?



I miss my friends, family, and loved ones. I miss contact with humanity. The Earth looks so small from up here. It’s very hot in the day and cold at night.I am an astronomer. So I find this appealing. I study how life exists in such extremes of space. Space has life, but not as we can even recognize. Life has to be stretched so much for how it is.
