NASA Science is NASA's new web site

NASA's Science Mission Directorate just launched a new web site called NASA Science, available at nasascience.nasa.gov. The site "provides enhanced and engaging information about NASA's vast scope of scientific endeavors and achievements." It will have in-depth coverage of NASA's past, present, and future science missions with features that include:

* Interactive tables and searches for Earth, heliophysics, planetary, and astrophysics missions

* Insight into dark matter and dark energy, planets around other stars, climate change, Mars, and space weather

* Resources for researchers including links to upcoming science solicitations and opportunities

* A mapping of science questions for NASA science missions and the data they produce

* A citizen-scientist page with access to resources that equip the public to engage in scientific investigation

* Expanded "For Educators" and "For Kids" pages to provide access to a broader range of resources for learning the science behind NASA missions
