The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) was established in 1958 by the National Aeronautics and Space Act to conduct civilian space and aeronautics activities. According to its 2022 strategic plan, NASA’s mission is to “explore the unknown in air and space, innovate for the benefit of humanity, and inspire the world through discovery.” NASA has programs in science, human spaceflight, space technology development, aeronautics research, and science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education.

This book describes the organization of NASA, its major programs, and its budget, providing an in-depth look at how NASA continues to push the boundaries of exploration and innovation.
