NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) was established July 29th 1958. Today NASA turned 50 years old. So Happy Birthday to them.
50 Years is a long time and they have come far. Put man on the moon, discovered the age of the universe, showed us spectacular pictures of the Universe through Hubble. Marked Mars with the Human Signature. Sent probes to almost every Planet. Pluto is next. And NASA successfully landed a satellite on a moving asteroid and now they are trying to do the same to a comet.
Here are some of the pictures taken by NASA Satellites.
