TESS, the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite, is the next step in the search for planets outside of our solar system, including those that could support life. http://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/thumbnails/image/tess_with_techs_4000.jpg

Inside the Astrotech processing facility at Vandenberg Air Force Base, NASA's Interior Exploration using Seismic Investigations, Geodesy and Heat Transport, or InSight, Mars lander is tested ahead of its scheduled launch on May 5, 2018. http://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/thumbnails/image/insight.jpg

Before there were computers and software that could stitch together digital images, they were printed on photo paper, trimmed by hand, and taped in place on a large black board. http://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/thumbnails/image/29177231106_5186f7024e_o.jpg

NASA astronaut Drew Feustel seemingly hangs off the International Space Station while conducting a spacewalk on March 29, 2018. http://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/thumbnails/image/iss055e006321.jpg

Aeronautical innovations are part of a government-industry partnership to collect data that could make supersonic flight over land possible, dramatically reducing travel time in the United States. http://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/thumbnails/image/lbfd-vehicle2.jpg

Gullies on Martian sand dunes, like these in Matara Crater, have been very active, with many flows in the last ten years. http://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/thumbnails/image/pia22349.jpg

These graceful arcs are a cosmic phenomenon known as an Einstein ring - created as the light from distant galaxies warps around an extremely large mass, like a galaxy cluster. http://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/thumbnails/image/potw1814a.jpg

Attendees talk with NASA staff at exhibit booths during Sneak Peek Friday at the USA Science and Engineering Festival, Friday, April 6, 2018. At the festival, NASA showcased the future of human space exploration – including the Orion spacecraft and the Space Launch System rocket. http://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/thumbnails/image/40567056184_826fbb12df_o.jpg

From March 20-23, 2018, the Solar Dynamics Observatory captured a series of images of our Sun and then ran together three sequences in three different extreme ultraviolet wavelengths. http://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/thumbnails/image/pia22360.jpg

Auroras are one of the many Earthly phenomena the crew of the International Space Station observe from their perch high above the planet. http://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/thumbnails/image/iss055e014528.jpg

The worlds orbiting other stars are called “exoplanets,” and they come in a wide variety of sizes, from gas giants larger than Jupiter to small, rocky planets about as big around as Earth or Mars. This rocky super-Earth is an illustration of the type of planets future telescopes, like NASA's TESS, hope to find outside our solar system. http://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/thumbnails/image/superearth20180412-16.jpg
