Spitzer: Star Wars Sunsets (2:32)
Who can forget the scene in Star Wars where Luke is contemplatively gazing across the Tatooine desert towards a sunset with two suns. See why NASA scientists are now convinced that the universe is full of planets with twin sun sunsets.
Chandra: Neutron Stars (4:23)
Watch this NASA video to understand how a neutron star is born and its place in the universe. Neutron stars form when massive stars run out of fuel and collapse. The protons and electrons in the star are squeezed together to form neutrons.
Shape of the Universe (2:34)
Learn about the forms and contours of the universe.
Chandra: All About Supernovas (4:39)
Watch this NASA video to learn about supernovas. When these supernovas are formed, they can be the brightest thing visible in the universe. In our own galaxy, we can see supernovas about twice a century (although the last one recorded was in 1604).
Chandra: Dark Matter (4:07)
Watch this NASA video to better understand what dark matter is and how it works. Dark matter isn't detectable by any telescope, but NASA scientists know that it's there because they can see the affects on other objects.
