The Jet Propulsion Laboratory at 90: A Legacy of Exploration, A Future of Discovery
For 90 years, NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory has pushed the boundaries of what is possible, transforming bold ideas into extraordinary discoveries.
From a small group of rocket pioneers in 1936 to missions exploring Earth, Mars, the outer planets, and beyond, JPL has helped shape humanity’s understanding of the universe.
The people, innovations, and discoveries that have defined JPL’s first 90 years come to life through historic footage, iconic mission moments, and the voices of generations of explorers.
As JPL marks this milestone, we look ahead to the next 90 years of exploration, sharing hopes for the discoveries still to come—and what it will take to keep daring mighty things.
