Understanding light years A NASA video that helps us understand the light year unit of distance measurement. The light year is used to measure distances between stars.- Global warming from 1880 to 2021 A spiral animation, showing us global warming between 1880 and 2021, based on data from NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS). White and blue indicate lower temperatures, while orange and red have higher temperatures.
- The launch of the James Webb Telescope A new space telescope was launched from the tropical space port of Guyana on December 25, 2021, which will give much more information than the old Hubble. The James Webb telescope that was built for 25 years, it will take another month to reach its orbit. Intended to be the successor to the Hubble Space Telescope, James Webb was funded by three space services: NASA, ESA and CSA. It will be 100 times more powerful and will incorporate improved and different technologies to capture 70% more light.
- NASA plane for transporting heavy cargo The Super Guppy is a large wide-body aircraft used to transport large components. First built in 1965, it is the only aircraft in the world to carry a complete S-IVB, the third stage of the Saturn V rocket. Super Guppy played this role several times during the Apollo space program.
- NASA: Zeus and Ganymede with music by Vangelis Papathanassiou NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory has created an amazing animation which it has published on NASA's Youtube channel. On June 7 and 8, 2021, The space probe Juno came closer to the icy moon of Jupiter, Ganymede, from any spacecraft for more than two decades. The animation consists of photos taken by the spacecraft on these specific dates. The video has been invested with the music of the composer Vangelis Papathanassiou.
- Firefighting system on a NASA rocket launch platform Kennedy Space Center fire system test, in Florida of the United States. The system can launch more than 1,7 million liters of water at a height of about 30 meters on the ramp, within a few seconds.
- The first helicopter flight to Mars On Tuesday, April 19, 2021, the Ingenuity, the small NASA helicopter, flew briefly to Mars and became the first motorboat to fly to another planet. The small weight helicopter 1,8 kilos hovered at an altitude of about three meters and then landed again on the surface of Mars. He also sent a black and white photo he took, pointing to his shadow on the ground.
- SpaceX and NASA Falcon 9 launch moment
- Panoramic picture 1,3 billion. pixel from Mars NASA has just published a video where we can see a panoramic picture of the Red Planet, at the foot of Mount Sharp. The largest panorama 360 degrees in history has a resolution of 1,3 billion. pixel and created 1,000 pictures taken by the cameras of the Curiosity rover.
- What the water from the oceans was emptied Oceans slowly emptied and reveal soil under water. An animation created by NASA in 2008 and upgraded to higher resolution by researcher James O'Donoghue.
- NASA Live streaming from the ISS live views of Earth from the International Space Station
- The behavior of mice in space 20 female mice were transferred to the International Space Station with the spacecraft SpaceX CRS-4 Dragon. During this the NASA study, mice showed various changes in their behavior. After 7-10 days, younger mice began to spin round in the cage, which evolved into a coordinated group activity. This activity may represent stereotyped motor behavior of mice in such an exercise wheel, or vestibular sense acquired since been adapted to the environment. briefly, mice learned in a few days how to move through a microgravity environment.
- Building Sustainable Habitat on Mars – NASA Contest The HASSELL design for a Mars Habitat has reached the final 10 of NASA’s 3D Printing Centennial Challenge.
- Representing the speed of light NASA scientist James O'Donoghue has created an interesting animation to represent the speed of light. Thus we see that light make 7,5 revolutions around the Earth within a second.
- InSight records the sound of the wind on Mars An audio excerpt from the wind on Mars as it hits the NASA aircraft InSight. The seismometritis and aircraft pressure sensor registered vibrations from winds 16-24 km / hr, as they blew across the plain of Mars Elysium Planitia on December 1, 2018.
