Every NASA mission represents a leap into the unknown, collecting data that pushes the boundaries of human understanding. But the story doesn't end when the mission concludes. The data carefully preserved in NASA's archives often finds new purpose decades later, unlocking discoveries that continue to benefit science, technology, and society.
"NASA's science data is one of our most valuable legacies," said Kevin Murphy, NASA's chief science data officer at NASA Headquarters in Washington. "It carries the stories of our missions, the insights of our discoveries, and the potential for future breakthroughs."
