00:00:00,100 --> 00:00:05,150


2
00:00:05,150 --> 00:00:10,200
At NASA Goddard, we build space telescopes

3
00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:15,300
to explore the evolution of galaxies, stars and planets

4
00:00:15,300 --> 00:00:17,370
that make up our universe.

5
00:00:17,370 --> 00:00:19,400
We discover planets around other stars 

6
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:22,520
and investigate whether they could support life 

7
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:24,580
and what that life might look like.

8
00:00:24,580 --> 00:00:28,770
We imagine, then engineer, far-out missions

9
00:00:28,770 --> 00:00:32,940
to answer questions about how galaxies and planets formed

10
00:00:32,940 --> 00:00:35,010
and evolved over time.

11
00:00:35,010 --> 00:00:38,080
At NASA Goddard, we study the sun’s dynamic behavior 

12
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:41,270
and the space weather that it generates

13
00:00:41,270 --> 00:00:44,360
so we can protect astronauts and satellites in space 

14
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:46,400
as well as our technology on the ground.

15
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:49,420
At NASA Goddard, we use the data from 

16
00:00:49,420 --> 00:00:52,470
a constellation of satellites to generate

17
00:00:52,470 --> 00:00:55,540
global maps of rain and snow 

18
00:00:55,540 --> 00:00:56,690
pummeling the Earth

19
00:00:56,690 --> 00:00:59,730
to monitor how greenhouse gases move through the atmosphere

20
00:00:59,730 --> 00:01:02,880
and to model all of Earth’s systems 

21
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,920
to create a dynamic portrait of our planet.

22
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:09,040
We launch small rockets

23
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:12,230
carrying university-developed experiments into space

24
00:01:12,230 --> 00:01:15,340
and provide low-cost space platforms

25
00:01:15,340 --> 00:01:18,530
for testing new instrument concepts

26
00:01:18,530 --> 00:01:21,550
and engineering techniques.

27
00:01:21,550 --> 00:01:23,830


28
00:01:23,830 --> 00:01:29,060
At NASA Goddard, we ensure every craft is space-ready

29
00:01:29,060 --> 00:01:31,140
We blast noise and shake instruments

30
00:01:31,140 --> 00:01:34,250
to simulate the stresses at launch

31
00:01:34,250 --> 00:01:37,380
we expose them to the unforgiving vacuum of space

32
00:01:37,380 --> 00:01:40,440
and to the powerful magnetic fields.

33
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,620
At NASA Goddard, we develop and maintain communication links 

34
00:01:43,620 --> 00:01:46,690
between Earth and spacecrafts in orbit.

35
00:01:46,690 --> 00:01:49,770
We evaluate and improve system software

36
00:01:49,770 --> 00:01:52,800
to reduce risk in our missions, large and small.

37
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:54,990
Innovation and science never sleep

38
00:01:54,990 --> 00:01:58,120
and new discoveries never get old

39
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:01,170
at NASA Goddard.

40
