Third Rock is Live!
Welcome to something brand new! It’s THIRD ROCK RADIO, and it’s all about exploration.
While NASA is synonymous with the exploration of space, technology, and science education, THIRD ROCK, which is focused on NASA and the great things going on there every day, is all about the exploration of New Rock.
On THIRD ROCK, you’ll hear New Rock of all kinds, including a whole galaxy full of new music that seems to go largely unexplored by ordinary radio. Just like a healthy scientific curiosity leads to great discoveries in technology, a good musical curiosity is constantly leading us to great New Rock, which we will immediately share with you!
You will also hear some things that you recognize, of course, but we’re excited about the opportunity to really roll up our sleeves and share great music with you. You can also “like” us on Facebook, and “follow” us on Twitter by clicking the links on the home page.
We have a lot of exciting things to share with you in the coming days, but for now, you’ve landed on the home of great new music and information about NASA itself! This is AMERICA’S SPACE STATION–THIRD ROCK! Welcome!

“This breakthrough could lead to a new type of data-centric computing that allows massive amounts of stored information to be accessed in less than a billionth of a second,” said a statement from IBM.
