In July 2008, NASA Images, a service of Internet Archive, started to offer public access to NASA’s images, videos, and audio collections. Internet Archive, a non-profit library, has set the goal of increasing our understanding of the earth, our solar system and the universe beyond in order to benefit humanity.

 

It is important to mention that Internet Archive receives no financial support from NASA. The project is currently funded through a grant from the Kahle-Austin Foundation, and it is actively looking for additional financial support. Potential sponsors can find more information on the NASA Images site.

 

The archive is organized into five main categories: Universe, Solar System, Earth, Aeronautics, and Astronauts. A really neat feature available is called Spaceflight Timeline. It allows you to browse the archive in chronological order. The timescale starts in 1958 with Explorer 1 Project. Other historical projects featured are Mercury, Gemini, Apollo, and SkyLab.

 

It is an excellent collection, check it out!
