New NASA Chief Says He Will Protect Climate Research
After his previous rejection of climate science, Jim Bridenstine tells employees he will keep politics out of the agency’s work
In the National Aeronautics and Space Act, which established the agency in 1958
The first objective of the agency was listed as “the expansion of human knowledge of the earth and of phenomena in the atmosphere and space.”

Join NASA for a #24Seven Celebration of Earth Day
This Earth Day, April 22, 2016, NASA is giving the world an insider’s look into the myriad activities the space agency conducts in a typical day to study and protect our home planet.
And -- we’re asking the world to share your Earth Day with us.
On April 22, NASA will post about 200 images across nearly 100 different social media channels that capture the breadth of the agency’s 24-hour-a-day work to study Earth. The images were captured during the week of March 27, but have been assembled chronologically to tell a story of a “day in the life” of NASA’s Earth science work. The time-stamped posts -- hashtagged #24Seven -- will begin publishing at 12:01 a.m. EDT and will continue throughout the day.
We know we aren’t the only people working to safeguard and understand our home planet. As you celebrate Earth Day, we’re asking you to share on social media what you’re doing to mark the day and celebrate our fragile home in space.

Game-Changing Energy Technology
NASA Research Could Save Commercial Airlines Billions in New Era of Aviation
New technologies, developed under the purview of NASA’s Environmentally Responsible Aviation (ERA) project, could cut airline fuel use in half, pollution by 75 percent and noise to nearly one-eighth of today’s levels.
“If these technologies start finding their way into the airline fleet, our computer models show the economic impact could amount to $255 billion in operational savings between 2025 and 2050,” said Jaiwon Shin, NASA’s associate administrator for aeronautics research.

Life on the International Space Station
Reel 1 / A view of life in space is getting a boost with the introduction of 4K Ultra High-Definition (UHD) video, providing an unprecedented look at what it's like to live and work aboard the International Space Station. This important new capability will allow researchers to acquire high resolution—high frame rate video to provide new insight into the vast array of experiments taking place every day. Cameras will also bestow breathtaking views of planet Earth and space station activities for those still dreaming of making the trip to outer space.

Earth Science Research from Space
In the National Aeronautics and Space Act, which established the agency in 1958, the first objective of the agency was listed as “the expansion of human knowledge of the earth and of phenomena in the atmosphere and space.”
From 2002 until February 2006, NASA’s mission statement, prominently featured in its budget and planning documents, read: “To understand and protect our home planet; to explore the universe and search for life; to inspire the next generation of explorers ... as only NASA can.”
In early February, the statement was quietly altered, with the phrase “to understand and protect our home planet” deleted. In this year’s budget and planning documents, the agency’s mission is “to pioneer the future in space exploration, scientific discovery and aeronautics research.”
David E. Steitz, a spokesman for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, said the aim was to square the statement with President Bush’s goal of pursuing human spaceflight to the Moon and Mars.
