- The mission of the NASA Scientific Visualization Studio is to facilitate
scientific inquiry and outreach within NASA programs through visualization. To
that end, the SVS works closely with scientists in the creation of
visualization products, systems, and processes in order to promote a greater
understanding of Earth and Space Science research activities at Goddard Space
Flight Center and within the NASA research community.
All the visualizations created by the SVS (currently totalling over 2,700) are
accessible to you through the Web site. More recent animations are provided as
MPEG-1s and MPEG-2s. Some animations are available in high definition as well
as NTSC format. Where possible, the original digital images used to make these
animations have been made accessible. Lastly, high and low resolution stills,
created from the visualizations, are included, with previews for selective
downloading.
