NASA was created as the United States' response to the Soviet challenge in the Space Race, and went on to land humans on the Moon, help build the International Space Station, explore Mars, study Earth and transform astronomy. Attention is now turning to its next chapter, with the Artemis lunar programme, planetary defense efforts and new propulsion concepts shaping the agency's future direction.

Why now: Renewed interest in NASA's history and upcoming Artemis missions has people reflecting on the agency's past achievements and future plans.
