Americká vládna agentúra NASA, ktorej slávna skratka je tvorená skratkou The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, je najvýraznejším priekopníkom vesmíru ľudstva. Len do roku 2015 odštartovalo z odpalísk, z rakiet, alebo v rámci už vesmírnych stanovísk viac ako 170 misií. Každá si vyžaduje presné matematické a iné vedecké výpočty. V každej jednej bolo nutné od počiatku činnosti vesmírnej agentúry brať do úvahy nie len tie pozemské zákony, ale aj fyzikálne zákony vo vesmíre. Technologický vývoj napreduje, ale tiež rastie aj náročnosť a úspešnosť vesmírneho výskumu. Chcete však vedieť viac o jednotlivých misiách, ktoré boli dodnes v NASA uskutočnené? (FOTO: NASA.gov)
