1 00:00:00,020 --> 00:00:07,080 2 00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:12,250 At NASA Goddard, we build space telescopes 3 00:00:12,250 --> 00:00:17,330 to explore the evolution of galaxies, stars and planets 4 00:00:17,330 --> 00:00:19,550 that make up our universe. 5 00:00:19,550 --> 00:00:22,770 We discover planets around other stars 6 00:00:22,770 --> 00:00:24,860 and investigate whether they could support life 7 00:00:24,860 --> 00:00:26,960 and what that life might look like. 8 00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:27,080 We imagine, then engineer, 9 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:31,150 We imagine, then engineer, far-out missions 10 00:00:31,150 --> 00:00:35,350 to answer questions about how galaxies and planets formed 11 00:00:35,350 --> 00:00:37,470 and evolved over time. 12 00:00:37,470 --> 00:00:40,500 At NASA Goddard, we study the sun’s dynamic behavior 13 00:00:40,500 --> 00:00:43,700 and the space weather that it generates 14 00:00:43,700 --> 00:00:46,750 so we can protect astronauts and satellites in space 15 00:00:46,750 --> 00:00:48,770 as well as our technology on the ground. 16 00:00:48,770 --> 00:00:51,860 At NASA Goddard, we use the data from 17 00:00:51,860 --> 00:00:54,920 a constellation of satellites to generate global 18 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,980 maps of rain and snow pummeling the Earth 19 00:00:57,980 --> 00:01:02,080 to monitor how greenhouse gases move through the atmosphere 20 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:05,240 and to model all of Earth’s systems 21 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:08,330 to create a dynamic portrait of our planet. 22 00:01:08,330 --> 00:01:11,430 We launch small rockets 23 00:01:11,430 --> 00:01:15,530 carrying university-developed experiments into space 24 00:01:15,530 --> 00:01:19,650 and provide low-cost space platforms 25 00:01:19,650 --> 00:01:23,730 for testing new instrument concepts and engineering techniques. 26 00:01:23,730 --> 00:01:30,870 At NASA Goddard, we ensure every craft is space-ready 27 00:01:30,870 --> 00:01:36,930 We blast noise and shake instruments to simulate the stresses at launch 28 00:01:36,930 --> 00:01:39,120 we expose them to the unforgiving vacuum of space 29 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,200 and to the powerful magnetic fields. 30 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:46,280 At NASA Goddard, we develop and maintain communication links 31 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:49,370 between Earth and spacecrafts in orbit. 32 00:01:49,370 --> 00:01:52,510 We evaluate and improve system software 33 00:01:52,510 --> 00:01:54,530 to reduce risk in our missions, large and small. 34 00:01:54,530 --> 00:01:57,600 Innovation and science never sleep 35 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,770 and new discoveries never get old 36 00:02:00,770 --> 00:02:04,800 at NASA Goddard. 37 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:05,258
