 | By arrangement with Internet Multicasting Services, NASA offers a selection of "Space Story" radio programs from 1994 and 1995 in multiple formats. The topics include Earth Science, planetary exploration, astronomy, aeronautics and space flight. If we have missed something please send us an email including a URL to the audio. |
 | Arts Gallery Not only do these art works provide a historic record of NASA projects, they also give the public a new and fuller understanding of advancements in aerospace. For more information, please send us an email |
Astronomy Movie Database
Movie Database Part-5 Over 3000 Avi, Mov, Mpg!! Mostly astronomy movies, some science, volcanos, earthquakes, etc.
Scientific Visualization Sites
This page is an annotated bibliography of scientific visualization web sites around the world. It is a service of the NAS (Numerical Aerospace Simulation) Facility at NASA Ames Research Center.
Planet Tour Features true stereo (3-D) images of the planets and satellites of our solar system. To view the stereo 3-D effect, you will need a pair of ordinary red-blue (or red-green) anaglyph stereo glasses. A few images are also presented as parallel (side-by-side) stereo pairs suitable for unaided viewing.

Scientists at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center watched the Northern Lights in real-time with the Ultraviolet Imager Experiment aboard the POLAR spacecraft. The current auroral pictures are posted as they are received from the instrument.

Several of the web pages in this site contain short video animations in Video for Windows (AVI) and MPEG format. These are best viewed with your video player set to continuously cycle (Auto Repeat) the video.
These movies show encounters between two equal mass galaxy disks which interact via different orbital plane geometries. The response of the gas to that encounter through star formation is color coded - red is the most intense regions of star formation and blue is the least intense
A Dark Matter Encounter
Audio Narration of Movie Contents
This movie shows an encounter between a gas rich disk galaxy and a very high Mass-to-Light ratio gas poor dwarf galaxy. As this movie shows the response of the gas (each colored dot is gas), the dwarf galaxy does not appear in the movie, only its gravity is reflected.
Experimental Morphing Movie
This movie shows how the UV appearance of a galaxy, in this case M81, and the Red appearance of the galaxy, are very different. The movie begins with the UV and ends with the Red. The UV light comes from stars that are about 1 million years old, the Red light comes from stars that are 5 Billion years old.
