NASA and Internet Archive launch centralized resource for images
Earth from the Moon – August, 1966
NASA and Internet Archive, a non-profit digital library based in San Francisco, are making available the most comprehensive compilation ever of NASA’s vast collection of photographs, historic film and video.
The Internet site combines for the first time 21 major NASA imagery collections into a single, searchable online resource. A link to the Web site will appear on the NASA home page.
The Web site launch is the first step in a five-year partnership that will add millions of images and thousands of hours of video and audio content, with enhanced search and viewing capabilities, and new user features on a continuing basis.
This resource enables the agency to digitize and preserve historical content now not available on the Internet for future generations.
