Hello, we're The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Nasa.

Our history dates back to the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, which was established on March 3, 1915.

We were founded as we recognise that the scientific discoveries we make in space and the exploration we undertake make life better for everyone on Earth. These goals define everything we do at Nasa, and today we're as committed as ever to bringing the benefits of space exploration to everyone.
