What is the NASA MCP Server?
The NASA MCP Server gives AI agents like Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor direct access to NASA via 4 tools. Explore 5,700+ confirmed exoplanets from NASA's Exoplanet Archive: search by discovery method, find habitable zone candidates, browse transit planets from Kepler and TESS missions, and analyze global discovery statistics spanning three decades of planet hunting. Powered by the Vinkius - no API keys, no infrastructure, connect in under 2 minutes.
Built-in capabilities (4)
Tools for your AI Agents to operate NASA
Ask your AI agent "How many exoplanets have been discovered?" and get the answer without opening a single dashboard. With 4 tools connected to real NASA data, your agents reason over live information, cross-reference it with other MCP servers, and deliver insights you would spend hours assembling manually.
Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any MCP-compatible client. Powered by the Vinkius - your credentials never touch the AI model, every request is auditable. Connect in under two minutes.
Why teams choose Vinkius
One subscription gives you access to thousands of MCP servers - and you can deploy your own to the Vinkius Edge. Your AI agents only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure and security, zero maintenance.

What is the habitable zone?
The habitable zone ('Goldilocks zone') is the range of distances from a star where liquid water could exist on a planet's surface — not too hot, not too cold. We filter for equilibrium temperatures between 200-320K and rocky sizes (< 2 Earth radii).
