Provides access to a wide variety of astrophysics, space physics, solar physics, lunar, and planetary data from NASA space flight missions, in addition to selected other data, models, and software.
The Space Physics Data Facility (SPDF) at Goddard Space Flight Center provides access to heliospheric magnetic field, plasma and spacecraft position data for each of many spacecraft.
This program combines resources and scientific communities on an international scale using a complement of several missions, along with complementary ground facilities and theoretical efforts, to obtain coordinated, simultaneous investigations of the Sun-Earth space environment over an extended period of time.
These missions are fundamental elements in our global approach to understanding the Sun-Earth connections system.The missions focus on understanding the dynamics, short and long term, large and small, through active and quiet solar periods.
A format adopted by the astronomical community for data interchange and archival storage. The FITS Support Office is responsible for documenting the FITS standard, participating in its evolution, and advising NASA astrophysics missions on how to present their data in FITS format.
AERONET is an international network composed of more than a hundred of sunphotometers that covers a big part of Earth. This network is among others used to study the aerosols and to validate satellite data.
MPLNET,funded by the NASA Earth Observing System, is a worldwide network of micro-pulse lidar (MPL) systems providing long-term data sets of cloud and aerosol vertical distributions at key sites around the world.
The Laboratory for High-Energy Astrophysics contains many active research and instrument development groups. These pages link to the web sites for many of these groups.
This NASA research institute subdivision of the Goddard Space Flight Center is located near Columbia University in New York City. GISS is primarily engaged in studies of global climate change.
The goal of the GEST Center is to forge new cooperative relationships between the private sector and government scientists to fully exploit the joint development of a comprehensive theoretical and experimental research program in concert with the Earth Sciences Directorate.
WMAP is a NASA Explorer Mission that will measure the temperature of the cosmic background radiation over the full sky with unprecedented accuracy. This map of the remnant heat of the Big Bang will provide answers to fundamental questions about the origin and fate of our universe.
MAST supports a variety of astronomical data archives, with the primary focus on scientifically related data sets in the optical, ultraviolet, and near-infrared parts of the spectrum.
For scientists and astronomy enthusiasts seeking actual data from a multitude of space-based observatories. HEASARC is the primary archive for high-energy astronomy missions, in the extreme ultraviolet, X-ray and gamma-ray wavelengths.
The Global Modeling and Assimilation Office (GMAO) has been established as a core resource in the development and use of satellite observations through the integrating tools of models and assimilation systems.
