The Smithsonian National Postal Museum, located near the U.S. Capitol, is devoted to presenting the colorful history of the
nation’s mail service. Mail transported our national culture, promoted capitalism, migration, community and identity formation.
It provided a communication link that encouraged the formation of like citizenry long before the birth of the Internet. These
images provide a peek into this intriguing history. To learn more, visit the museum's website. To view more collections from

Why Demonstrate Robotic Satellite Servicing? America has seen NASA land on the moon, fix the Hubble Space Telescope and
roam on Mars' landscape—but they have yet to see NASA robotically repair and refuel a satellite in space. The Robotic Refueling
Mission (RRM) is the first step to making routine on-orbit robotic satellite servicing a reality. Every year, functional
satellites providing weather data, communications and other essential services are retired because they reach the end of their
fuel supply. But robotic refueling is quite challenging. Before a satellite leaves the ground, its technicians fill its
fuel tank through a valve that is then triple-sealed and covered with a protective blanket—a design that was never intended
to be accessed again. RRM paves the way for future robotic servicing missions by demonstrating that the technologies and
techniques exist today to allow a remote-controlled robot to overcome these obstacles and refuel a satellite on orbit. This
revolutionary investigation may one day substantially impact the many satellites that deliver products that Americans rely
upon daily. Credit: NASA NASA Goddard Space Flight Center enables NASA’s mission through four scientific endeavors: Earth
Science, Heliophysics, Solar System Exploration, and Astrophysics. Goddard plays a leading role in NASA’s accomplishments
by contributing compelling scientific knowledge to advance the Agency’s mission. Follow us on Twitter Like us on Facebook Find
