Not many people realize that in addition to its scientific data and news releases, NASA also shares a substantial amount of free resources on its website: ebooks, children's materials, podcasts, and ...

Using cutting-edge theoretical models and data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory, scientists have transformed astronomical observations into detailed 3D models of cosmic objects — models that ...

Last year NASA started releasing 3D models of its probes and spacecraft that anyone could download and use to 3D print their own space fleet. That collection now finally includes a tiny replica of the ...

NASA has provided us with some truly fantastic images of the Moon over the years. We've gotten to see Earth's friendly little neighbor from just about every angle, and anyone who wants to scour images ...

There are very few private citizens with enough money to recreate NASA’s fantastic space explorations. But, there are plenty of private citizens with enough money to buy a 3D printer, and now that ...

NASA has created a full 3D model of a light-year-long nebula that was coughed out by the Eta Carinae system, 7,500 light years away from Earth, in the 19th century. Eta Carinae can be found in the ...

Once one of the brightest stars in the night sky, the star Eta Carinae, lost its luster after the 1843 Great Eruption. NASA has now provided a three-dimensional model of the Homunculus Nebula and ...
