            <description>         NSSDC is the permanent archive for NASA space science mission data:         astronomy and astrophysics, solar and space plasma physics, and         planetary and lunar science. As permanent archive, NSSDC teams with         NASA's discipline-specific space science "active archives" which         provide access to data to researchers and to the general public. NSSDC         also serves as NASA's primary active archive for space physics mission         data and for selected NASA astrophysics missions. It provides access         to several geophysical models and to data from some non-NASA mission         data. In addition to supporting active space physics and astrophysics         researchers, NSSDC also supports the general public both via several         public-interest web-based services (e.g., the Photo Gallery) and via         the offline mailing of CD-ROMs, photoprints, and other items. NSSDC         provides online information about NASA and non-NASA spacecraft and         experiments, and about data management standards and technologies.      </description>
