Developer Tools & IT
What the Nasa connector can do
Nasa's open APIs expose public data on asteroids, satellites, imagery, and technical reports. With a Nasa connection in a type.com Space, the agent can browse the near-Earth object dataset for asteroid details, generate a satellite position graph over a time period, manage metadata associations and access controls in the technical reports repository, or download a citation document, useful for research and content teams.
One connection, many Spaces
Connect Nasa once, then decide which Spaces can use it in threads, skills, automations, and coding work.
What teams do with Nasa in type.com
Research a near-Earth asteroid for content
Ask the agent to browse the asteroid dataset so a science writer gets real orbital and hazard data for a story.
Browse Nasa near-Earth objects and find any classified as potentially hazardous this month.
Visualize a satellite's orbit
Have the agent generate a position graph for a satellite over a date range so the team can see its trajectory.
Create a Nasa graph request showing the ISS orbit for the past week.
Pull supporting research documents
Ask the agent to download a citation document so a researcher has the full technical report on hand.
Download the Nasa citation document for report ID NTRS-20230004521.

FAQ
Questions people ask before connecting Nasa
Can Claude pull Nasa's open data into a thread?
Yes. With a Nasa connection shared to a Space, the agent can browse asteroid data, generate graphs, and download documents in a thread.
What authentication does Nasa use in type.com?
Nasa uses an API key, added once by an admin when the connection is created, then shared with the Spaces that need it.
Can Nasa data pulls run on a schedule?
Yes. A type.com automation can check for new near-Earth object alerts on a recurring basis and post them to a channel.
Is this the same as an MCP server for Nasa?
Not exactly. type.com uses connectors and connections to give selected Spaces access to approved app tools and data. Some connectors use hosted MCP, while others use OAuth, API keys, service accounts, or custom APIs.
