Profile
NASA's reach spans the universe. The rover Opportunity is still studying Mars after arriving with its twin Spirit in 2004. Cassini orbits around Saturn, as Juno makes its way to Jupiter. The Hubble Space Telescope continues to explore the deepest reaches of the cosmos. The crew of the International Space Station is extending the permanent human presence in space. Earth Science satellites are sending unprecedented data on Earth's oceans, climate and other features. NASA's aeronautics team is working with other government organizations, universities, and industry to fundamentally improve the air transportation experience and retain our nation's leadership in global aviation.

New technology could help track firefighters and robots
It could be used for tracking robots in underground tunnels, caves or under ice. They need to be able to navigate themselves, and we don't have sensors today that would be able to track them.9 Dec 2016
NASA scientists see asteroid through the eyes of a robot
Retrieving an asteroid sample is no easy task. Doing the job blindfolded is even more challenging. That's why scientists equipped the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft with a set of eyes to watch it all unfold.6 Dec 2016
Robot helps people live, work and shop
At 1.7 metres tall and weighing close to 100 kilograms, Chip has a sophisticated mix of cameras, lasers, ultrasounds, microphones and speakers which allow it to recognise faces, converse with people and answer questions, and grasp and move objects around independently.1 Dec 2016
Green plastic for printing in space
Green Plastic, which is made from sugarcane, is now being used to fabricate parts in space.1 Dec 2016
Metallic glass gears make for graceful robots
Gears are essential for precision robotics. They allow limbs to turn smoothly and stop on command; low-quality gears cause limbs to jerk or shake. If you're designing a robot to scoop samples or grip a ledge, the kind of gears you'll need won't come from a hardware store.17 Nov 2016
