NASA Advanced Supercomputing Division

NASA's Advanced Supercomputing Division (NAS) provides highly powerful computing resources and expertise to support space research and engineering. It enables scientists and engineers to run complex simulations—such as predicting climate impacts on spacecraft, studying planetary atmospheres, or modeling spacecraft designs—that would be impossible with regular computers. By offering advanced supercomputers, NAS helps accelerate discoveries, improve mission safety, and develop innovative technologies for space exploration. Essentially, it acts as NASA's high-performance brain, processing enormous data and running detailed models to solve complex scientific and technical challenges.
