Video Games

NASA's controllers are used to move the space shuttle! Your controllers move characters in video games!  So remember, the next time you're playing a video game, NASA created the joy stick!

Astronauts train in Virtual Reality Labs that make it look and feel as if entire space walks are happening here on earth! Now, Virtual Reality Games are slowly becoming available to us! Maybe in a few years, we'll be walking on the moon from our living room couch.

Dish Network

Dish Network was a great improvement from cable television. NASA launched satellites that travel around the world and allow data to be transported at high speed from broadcasting stations to you! This data includes your favorite TV shoes and movies!

NASA in the Movies

NASA has inspired and contributed to many Hollywood movies from classics like E.T to more realistic ones like Apollo 13.
