NASA's Solar System Exploration site provides authoritative information on planets, moons, asteroids, comets, and missions, with news, images, videos, fact sheets, and interactive tools to learn about the solar system.
Solar System
This course provides an overview of what we know about the Solar System: how it began and evolved, its components and their properties, and how these elements interact as a system. However, much of our knowledge remains incomplete, and so unanswered questions and mysteries figure prominently in the story. This course addresses our scientific understanding of the Solar System, how we know what we know, and many hotly debated questions at the cutting edge of scientific research. Each week features original essays by Neil deGrasse Tyson and Denton Ebel, two distinguished curators of the American Museum of Natural History. These essays provide a foundation for the overarching question posed during each week and include links to related websites. In addition, each week includes at least one video that uses the NASA-funded OpenSpace software to complement the essays with data visualizations narrated by AMNH’s Carter Emmart, Director of Astrovisualizaton, and Jaqueline Faherty, Senior Scientist and Senior Education Manager.
Astronomy: Exploring Time and Space
This course is designed for anyone who is interested in learning more about modern astronomy. We will help you get up to date on the most recent astronomical discoveries while also providing support at an introductory level for those who have no background in science.
Planetary Radio
Planetary Radio brings you the human adventure across our Solar System and beyond. We visit each week with the scientists, engineers, leaders, advocates, and astronauts who are taking us across the final frontier. Regular features raise your space IQ while they put a smile on your face. Join host Sarah Al-Ahmed and Planetary Society colleagues including Bill Nye the Science Guy and Bruce Betts as they dive deep into space science and exploration. The monthly Space Policy Edition takes you inside the DC beltway where the future of the US space program hangs in the balance. Visit planetary.org/radio...
The Planets
A literary portrait of each planet, weaving mythology, art, history and the findings of robotic probes into short essays. Readers gain a cultural and observational feel for the Solar System rather than technical astrophysics.
Planetary Sciences
A graduate-level Cambridge textbook on the physics, chemistry and geology of planets, moons, asteroids, comets and rings, plus planet formation and extrasolar systems. Requires calculus and undergraduate physics to work through the derivations.
