View this beautiful visualization of the Dawn spacecraft on its journey to the main asteroid belt to Asteroid Vesta and Dwarf Planet Ceres.

This movie is made up of over 600 consecutive images taken on March 16 to March 18, 2007, with the Cassini Magnetopsheric Imaging Instrument's ion and neutral camera.

Soar over the giant asteroid Vesta in 3-D. Put on your 3-D glasses for this ride over asteroid Vesta.

This new animation shows us that Saturn's moon Titan has more in common with Earth than we thought.

Since the 1960’s, scientists have suspected that frozen water could survive in cold, dark craters at the Moon’s poles. 

Probe Landing on Titan

Winds around Jupiter's Great Red Spot are simulated in this JunoCam view that has been animated using a model of the winds there.

RTG fit and test

Phillip Chamberlin expresses his enthusiasm for science and describes how he became a research astrophysicist.

This colorized movie from NASA's Cassini mission shows a polar projection of the curious six-sided jet stream at Saturn's north pole known as "the hexagon" in the infrared.

Clouds move above the large methane lakes and seas near the north pole of Saturn’s moon Titan in this movie made from images taken by NASA's Cassini spacecraft.

Edward Stone describes how he was always interested in what was new as a young man and how space physics got his attention.

This animation of Vesta is made from images taken with Dawn's framing camera.

This three-frame animation from NASA's Cassini spacecraft shows the swirling clouds in a vortex spawned by a great northern storm on Saturn. The clouds are moving in a clockwise direction.

Cassini stares deep into the swirling hurricane-like vortex at Saturn's south pole, where the vertical structure of the clouds is highlighted by shadows. 

An overview video of the OSIRIS-REx mission.

This is a compilation of the Saturn hexagon movies released on Dec. 5, 2013.

Saturn's two-faced moon tilts and rotates for Cassini in this mesmerizing movie sequence of images acquired during the spacecraft's close encounter with Iapetus on Nov. 12, 2005.

We know what the Red Planet looks like from the outside – but what's going on under the surface of Mars?

Cassini mission planners created this animation to showcase Cassini's final 22 orbits - the mission's Grand Finale.

This still from a movie shows an image taken by NASA's Dawn spacecraft layered on a digital terrain model of an unusual hill containing a dark-rayed impact crater and nearby dark deposit on asteroi...

On unexplored worlds, the sound of science is a harmonious melody of chimes, clicks and mechanical whirrs.

NASA's Director of Planetary Science, Jim Green, discusses the Jan. 20 Astronomical Journal science paper that points to the possibility of a new "Planet 9" in our solar system beyond Pluto.
