    Science Behind the Discoveries. Indulge your curiosity and dive into the fundamental science that is the foundation of Hubble's observations. Discover how Hubble uses different wavelengths of light to reveal much more information than the human eye can see, then explore the individual components of that light as you learn about spectroscopy.

  7. Space Travel Technology

    Space Travel. The path to the Moon, Mars, and beyond requires technologies to get us where we need to go quickly, safely and efficiently. Space travel includes launch and in-space propulsion systems, cryogenic fluid management, and thermal management, as well as navigation and landing systems to get our supplies, equipment, and robotic or human ...

  8. Space exploration

    Space exploration is the use of astronomy and space technology to explore outer space. [1] While the exploration of space is currently carried out mainly by astronomers with telescopes, its physical exploration is conducted both by uncrewed robotic space probes and human spaceflight.Space exploration, like its classical form astronomy, is one of the main sources for space science.

  9. Why Go to Space

    Space exploration unites the world to inspire the next generation, make ground-breaking discoveries, and create new opportunities. Technologies and missions we develop for human spaceflight have thousands of applications on Earth, boosting the economy, creating new career paths, and advancing everyday technologies all around us.

  10. Time Travel: Observing Cosmic History

    The answer is simply light. The term "light-year" shows up a lot in astronomy. This is a measure of distance that means exactly what it says - the distance that light travels in one year. Given that the speed of light is 186,000 miles (299,000 kilometers) per second, light can cover some serious ground over the course of 365 days.

  11. The future of spaceflight—from orbital vacations to humans on Mars

    NASA aims to travel to the moon again—and beyond. Here's a look at the 21st-century race to send humans into space. Private spaceflight is not a new concept. In the United States, commercial ...

  12. The Space We Travel Through

    NASA explores the unknown in air and space, innovates for the benefit of humanity, and inspires the world through discovery. When sea-faring nations began to explore new regions of the world, one of their biggest concerns in making the journey safely was how to cope with weather. They could harness the wind for power.

  13. Spaceflight

    spaceflight, flight beyond Earth's atmosphere. This article deals with the basic concepts associated with the launch and return of unmanned and manned spacecraft and their travel, navigation, and rendezvous and docking in space. For the development of space travel and discussions of spacecraft and space programs and their contributions to scientific knowledge and human welfare, see space ...

    Time isn't the same everywhere. Some scientists are exploring other ideas that could theoretically allow time travel. One concept involves wormholes, or hypothetical tunnels in space that could create shortcuts for journeys across the universe.If someone could build a wormhole and then figure out a way to move one end at close to the speed of light - like the hypothetical spaceship ...

  21. Chapter 3: Gravity & Mechanics

    The standard unit of force is the newton, which is the force required to accelerate a 1-kg mass 1 m/sec 2 (one meter per second per second). A newton is equal to the force from the weight of about 100 g of water in Earth's gravity. That's about half a cup. A dyne is the force required to accelerate a 1-g mass 1 cm/s 2.

  22. Is Time Travel Possible?

    In Summary: Yes, time travel is indeed a real thing. But it's not quite what you've probably seen in the movies. Under certain conditions, it is possible to experience time passing at a different rate than 1 second per second. And there are important reasons why we need to understand this real-world form of time travel.
