Goddard's Dr. Blanche Meeson introduces questions that will be answered in short videos released throughout Earth Science Week. The videos feature other Goddard scientists talking about Earth System subjects. The videos are all part of...

People the world over are feeling, or soon will feel, the effects of the strongest El Niño event since 1997-98, currently unfolding in the eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean. New satellite observations are beginning to show scientists...

Climate scientists have been monitoring Earth's energy budget since the 1978 launch of NASA's Nimbus-7 satellite. That mission carried a new instrument into space called the Earth Radiation Budget Experiment (or ERBE), designed to...

NPP is a continuation of the existing Earth-observing satellites (EOS) and it builds on the legacy of multi decades of critical data. In this video, NPP Project Scientist, James Gleason (NASA Goddard Space Flight Center), summarizes the...

This video is about how we don't just need energy to power our lives, we need *low entropy* energy! Thanks to Google Making and Science for supporting this series, and to Sean Carroll for collaborating on it!...

In this video Paul Andersen explains how matter and energy are conserved within the Earth's system. Matter is a closed system and Energy is open to the surroundings. In natural systems steady state is maintained through feedback loops...

Concrete is responsible for 8% of humanity’s carbon emissions because making its key ingredient - cement - chemically releases CO2, and because we burn fossil fuels to make it...

Are we alone in the universe? This is a fundamental question that intrigues us all.



On September 21, 2016, NASA scientists and stakeholders came together at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum for...

In this video students learn how to analyze and interpret data from maps to describe Earth’s surface. Students will learn how to work with topographical maps to identify features on Earth. This program addresses the following Next...

This video explores how different parts of Earth including the geosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere interact with one another. Students then use this knowledge to develop their own models that illustrate how various parts of...
