NASA Technology Spinoffs
Spinoff is NASA's annual premiere publication featuring successfully commercialized NASA technology. For more than 30 years, the NASA Commercial Technology Program has facilitated the transfer of NASA technology to the private sectors. The resulting commercialization has contributed to the development of commercial products and services in the fields of health and medicine, industry, consumer goods, computer technology, and environment. Through distribution and outreach activities, NASA technology has benefited global competition and the economy.

Inventions from Space What do all the things pictured on this page have in common? They all use technologies or materials that were originally developed for the space program.

Aerospace Team Online Aerospace Team Online will bring you into flight simulators and wind tunnels to see NASA employees doing aerodynamic design research. You will hear from the engineers, technicians, mechanics and designers working to make tomorrow's planes safer, more efficient, quieter, and faster.

THE BEST OF NASA'S SPINOFFS Information on numerous benefits resulting from the space program

Apollo 11 This collection of photos, short blurbs and sound files was created by the National Space Science Data Center in 1994 to commemorate the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Apollo 11 flight.

Apollo 13 Apollo 13 was to be the third mission to land on the Moon. An explosion in one of the oxygen tanks crippled the spacecraft during flight and the crew were forced to orbit the Moon and return to the Earth without landing.

Where No Man Has Gone Before NASA provides a history and images of all of the Apollo missions to the moon.
