Imagine for a second, a skyscraper, the tallest skyscraper ever built, that’s 100 kilometers tall. You could take an elevator from the ground floor of this skyscraper all the way up to where space begins to a sky bar where you could look at the earth below, and maybe even be launched into space from
Discover how scientists plan to use data from the GRAIL mission and a map of the Moon's gravitational field to learn about its internal structure. By comparing data about the Moon's gravity with information about its topography, scientists can gain a better understanding of the Moon's formation and
Everyone knows there's a strong link between sci-fi and technology. But science fiction movies can also provide powerful insights into how to innovation ethically and responsibly. This week's video draws on author, scientist and Risk Bites producer Andrew Maynard's book "Films from the Future: The
Launched in September 2011, find out about the Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory (GRAIL) mission to measure the gravitational field of the Moon and study how the Moon developed over time. Animations illustrate technical aspects of the mission's design, including the launch, orbital insertion

Take a tour of the Moon's surface features in this video from NASA. Images and topographic maps show craters, rocks, mountains, basins, and valleys, including the Orientale basin, Shackleton crater, South Pole-Aitken basin, Tycho crater, Aristarchus plateau, Mare Serenitatis, Compton-Belkovich volca
Explore the exciting discoveries from two NASA missions to study comets, Stardust and Deep Impact, which collected valuable data about the nature of comets. The Stardust spacecraft was designed to capture dust particles from comet Wild 2 and deliver them to Earth for analysis. The Deep Impact missio

Explore the rings and moons of Saturn through images from the Cassini spacecraft. Saturn's rings were discovered in 1610 by Galileo Galilei, although he did not see enough detail to know what they were. In 2004, the Cassini spacecraft began capturing unprecedented images of Saturn's atmosphere and t
Our moon is 2,150 miles wide and orbits the earth at a distance of 384 thousand kilometers, but since its formation, the moon has actually been moving away from the earth. Click here to see more videos: https://alugha.com/LifesBiggestQuestions VIDEO CONCEPT: Landon Dowlatsingh - http://bit.ly/2bwF
