This is the current iteration of api.nasa.gov.

This project contains API listings of available NASA public APIs and well as a GSA API key form to allow NASA branded API pages to be integrated with the GSA api.data.gov system. Our listing is currentlyincomplete as we are currently displaying the more simple API's in our .json storage system.

For other US government agency API pages, seehttps://api.data.gov/

• Obtain an API key by filling out the form in theGenerate API Key Section
• Information about the usage capabilities of your API in theAuthentication Section
• A list of a few NASA publics API's and how to use them in theBrowse APIs Section

api.nasa.gov utilizes the following libraries and resources:

• NASA Web Design Service(CSS and JS): A style system created in order to help NASA websites have a more unified look. You can find their info herehttps://nasa.github.io/nasawds-site/
• JQuery (JS): A library that simplifies the javascript coding process

The API information that our site hosts is currently archived in ourapis.json folder which is then read and generated into the page dynamically.

We only map the orginal developer's endpoint to one of our api.nasa.gov endpoints. Basically, api.nasa.gov acts as a passthrough service. Please do not contact us with technical questions about a particular API as we do not have access to most API production environments. You can follow links on our site to get more information about each API and use the contact information on those pages to reach the people who control each API.
