NASA, or the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, is the United States government agency responsible for the nation's civilian space program and for aeronautics and aerospace research.
Established in 1958, NASA has played a pivotal role in advancing our understanding of space and our place in the universe.
Over the years, NASA has achieved numerous groundbreaking milestones, including sending astronauts to the Moon during the Apollo missions, launching the Hubble Space Telescope to explore distant galaxies, and sending robotic spacecraft to study planets, asteroids, and other celestial bodies.
NASA continues to push the boundaries of space exploration with its ambitious missions, such as the Mars rover missions and the James Webb Space Telescope, which promise to unlock new mysteries of the cosmos and expand our knowledge of the universe.
