Introduction

Human beings are inquisitive beings, so they desire to know about every thing, thing or thing about which they are unaware. So, friends, the topic that we are going to talk about today is not only for us, although it is very valuable for the whole universe. Today we will talk about the world's largest space agency, named, (NASA) which is a space agency of America.


If you are one of those students who are related to science, or have a desire to know about the universe and space, then definitely read this information suitable by us till the end, in this you will know everything related to NASA and space. Which you are probably unaware of till now. In this article, we will see many questions related to NASA like "What is NASA?" full from of NASA, what is the motive of NASA, who is the head of NASA, when was NASA established and the work of NASA, you will find answers to all these questions in this article. Will find you in the article. So let's know in detail.

What is the Full Form of NASA

The full form of NASA is "National Aeronautics and Space Administration".

• N - National
• A - Aeronautics
• S - Space
• A - Administration

What is NASA?

The full name of NASA is National Aeronautics and Space Administration. The headquarter of NASA is located in Washington DC, United States, and it is considered to be the number 1 space agency in the whole world and it is believed that this space agency has completed the entire Has achieved a great position in the space world. Then whether it is a matter of going to the moon or the name of NASA comes first on Mars.

When was NASA founded?

• NASA was discovered on 29 July 1958 by America. Which, till date, is considered one of the most important discoveries in the whole world, with the help of which we get to know about all the activities happening in our universe. NASA has gone beyond the imagination of a common man, starting with the first spacecraft (Pioneer), which was launched in 1973. And it was the first spacecraft to visit Jupiter and Saturn in our Solar System. Which investigated the rocks orbiting between Mars and Jupiter, the most intelligent planets of the Solar System system and also gave some amazing pictures of them.

• After this NASA launched (WAMP) in 2001, which unearthed the secrets of BiG Ban, and told that the age of our universe is 13.7 billion years. And 90% of the universe is made up of bad substances like dark matter i.e. dark energy. NASA also launched Veygaar 1 and 2 to probe Jupiter and Saturn, due to which the rings around Saturn and Jupiter could get closer information, as well as it flew to Uranus from there.

• Then he made the world aware that there are 10 Chandrayaan on Uranus. This was actually the biggest and most important piece of information that NASA had ever discovered. Friends, in such a situation, the name of Hubble comes first in the world's most famous spacecraft. Which completely compelled the world to learn more about space from the photographs taken by it.

• This made it easy to create calculation in the world of space, after this begins the story of writing history in the world of NASA, after that NASA launched the Mars Rover, this discovery of NASA made him into the world of space. He was placed on the top of the summit, for which it took him only 90 days. Through this mission, it was found out that there used to be water on Mars. After this the time had come, for launching NASA's best spacecraft, the credit of which goes not to man but to the machine.

• Friends, we are talking about the most important Apollo mission of NASA, which gave further impetus and new direction to the thinking of scientists. This mission gave us many information about the moon, like what matter it is made of, how much is its weight and how old is it, and how and when all this started etc.

• Friends, the most important thing is that in this mission of Apollo, Nil Armstrong, about whom we have been falling since childhood, took the first step on the moon on 16th July 1969. Which was a very historic event.

Functions of NASA

• If we talk about the work done by NASA, then NASA does the work of finding out all the activities in space, whether it is about the Moon, Mars, Saturn, Jupiter or the whole universe, in addition to the winds. It also detects the activity caused by storms, hurricanes, cyclones etc.

• Apart from all this, NASA also conducts cosmic discoveries related to the Earth and its interior, all the missions discovered by NASA proved to be very effective, in which the Moon to Mars mission was given the most. NASA had discovered this important mission very deeply by the explorers. With the help of this mission, we got to know whether life is possible on the moon and Mars or not. NASA discovered many missions, out of which one mission was also for you people, that is, for the students. NASA prepares teachers who can prepare Engineers, Scientists and Astronauts especially useful for NASA, who can do the work of NASA in the future.

• NASA has a tradition of investing in programs and activities that inspire students, teachers, families, and the public with the excitement of exploration and discovery. NASA provides training to help teachers learn new ways of teaching technology, engineering and mathematics.

• After this, NASA discovered the solar system and much more in space research. To search for humans, he also prepared missions like Mission Moon to Mars and also prepared the International Space Station.

• Then he discovered aviation technology, due to which we are able to travel in space. In the end, Space is continuously exploring technology and all the activities happening on Earth.

NASA's Chief Scientists and Their Tenure

It is the senior most position of a scientist in NASA. The Chief Scientist serves as the principal advisor to the NASA Administrator on science issues and as the interface for the national and international science community. This ensures that NASA research programs are scientifically and technologically well established, and are suitable for their intended applications.

• Dr. Frank B. McDonald from 1982 to 1987.
• Dr. Noel Hiners from 1987 to 1989.
• Dr. France A. Cordova from 1993 to 1996.
• Dr. Cathy L. Olsen from 1999 to 2002.
• Dr. Shannon Lucid from 2002 to 2003.
• Dr. John M. Grusfield from 2003 to 2004.
• Dr. James B. Gravin from 2004 to 2005.
• Dr. Waleed Abdalati from 2011 to 2012.
• Dr. Ellen Stoefen from 2013 to 2016.
• Dr. Jim Green from 2018 to 2021.
• Dr. Katherine Calvin from 2022 to Present

Important Discoveries Made By NASA

• The NASA's first space exploration was pioneer, launched in 1973. And it was the first spacecraft to visit Jupiter and Saturn in the Solar System.

• After this NASA launched Big Ban (WMAP) in 2001, which told that the age of the universe is 13.17 billion years.

• After this, NASA launched Beygaar 1 and 2 to investigate Jupiter and Saturn, which revealed the way to Saturn's rings and Uranus.

• Then among all the spacecraft in the world whose name comes in the upper category, it is Hubble, which forced the world to know more about the universe from the pictures taken by him.

• After that NASA launched Mars Rover, which traveled 90 days and took NASA far ahead in the world of science. This mission introduced the information that there used to be water on Mars.

• After this, comes the matter of the mission that NASA is still proud of, yes, we are talking about the most important mission of NASA (Apolo), with the help of which we came to know how old the Moon is. What is it, and what elements is it made up of, and when and how did it start. Let us tell you that in this mission of Apollo, Nil Armstrong took his first step on the moon.
