NASA and the PDS recently engaged in development of a Roadmap for the period 2017 to 2026. The purpose of the roadmap effort was to outline a strategy for moving forward in planetary data archiving under the auspices of a rapidly growing data volume (nearly 1 petabyte at present), new computing capabilities, tools, and facilities, and a growing ...
neat.jpl.nasa.gov Near-Earth Asteroid Tracking ( NEAT ) was a program run by NASA and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory , surveying the sky for near-Earth objects . NEAT was conducted from December 1995 until April 2007, at GEODSS on Hawaii (Haleakala-NEAT; 566 ), as well as at Palomar Observatory in California (Palomar-NEAT; 644 ).
JPL and the Space Age was created in 2022 [2] to inform users about JPLs contributions and missions. JPL and the Space Age started airing on NASA TV and JPLs website. The first episode released for the franchise was The American Rocketeer, releasing in January of 2022. [3] The series later migrated to NASA+ in November 2023. [4]
Ed Stone, who guided NASA's breakthrough Voyager mission to the outer planets and led the Jet Propulsion Laboratory when it landed its first rover on Mars, has died. Ed Stone, JPL director and top ...
The James Webb Space Telescope detected water vapor swirling around a planetary system 370 light-years away.
JPL took over the lease in 1962. [3] [2] The observatory conducts high-precision astrometric observations to support NASA and international spacecraft mission navigation, confirmation and recovery of near-Earth objects such as comets and asteroids that may potentially impact the Earth, and technology development.

In 2005, the U.S. Congress passed the NASA Authorization Act, which, in part, tasked NASA with finding and cataloguing at least 90% of all near-Earth objects that are 140 meters or larger by 2020. [ 6 ] [ 7 ] However, that goal was clearly not being met by NASA's Near Earth Object Observations Program, which a 2014 report by the NASA Office of ...
Early 2025 is a good time for skygazing and spotting up to seven planets in the night sky – if you have a little help. According to Nasa, these multi-planet views aren't "super rare," but they ...
