NASA offers a suite of APIs providing access to a wide range of data, including Earth science, planetary imagery, and technology transfer information.
Tools
Browse Near Earth Objects
Browse the complete NASA near-Earth object (asteroid) dataset with pagination support. Returns comprehensive asteroid data including orbital parameters, estimated diameters, close approach events, and hazard classifications. Use this when you need to explore the entire NEO catalog or retrieve multiple asteroids across pages.
Create Graph Request
Tool to create orbital and position graphs for NASA satellites using the Satellite Situation Center (SSC) web service. Use when you need to visualize satellite trajectories, orbits, or positions over a specific time period in various coordinate systems. The service generates graph files accessible via URLs in the response.
Delete Cmr Association
Tool to delete an existing association between concepts in NASA's Common Metadata Repository. Use when you need to remove relationships between collections, services, tools, or other CMR resources. Requires appropriate permissions to delete associations.
Delete Cmr Acl
Tool to delete an Access Control List (ACL) from NASA's Common Metadata Repository. Use when you need to remove access controls for a specific CMR resource. Requires appropriate permissions to delete ACLs.
Download Citation Document
Downloads a document file from a NASA NTRS (NASA Technical Reports Server) citation. Use this when you need to retrieve PDF or other document files associated with a specific citation ID. Supports partial content downloads via byte range specification.
Get Agage Data Files
Tool to retrieve information about AGAGE (Advanced Global Atmospheric Gases Experiment) data files. Returns paginated results (40 files per page) with detailed metadata including compound names, stations, dates, instruments, and file locations. Use when you need to search or browse AGAGE atmospheric data files. Supports filtering by recommendation status, compounds, stations, date ranges, and other criteria.
