Connect Nasa Exoplanets Worlds Beyond Our Solar S to your AI

Set it up once and it works in ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and any other client you love. It all runs safely in the background, so you can relax and focus on what really matters. Query the world's largest database of confirmed planets.

Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

    Get habitable zone

    Identifies exoplanets located within the habitable zone where liquid water could potentially exist.

  3. 03

    Get transit planets

    Filters for planets discovered via the transit method, specifically focusing on data from Kepler and TESS missions.

  4. 04

    Query confirmed planets

    Searches the full archive for confirmed planets using filters like name, discovery method, facility, or year.

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Habitability Research

Ask your agent to find rocky planets with temperatures suitable for liquid water.

02

Mission Comparison

Compare the number of planets found by Kepler versus TESS.

03

Physical Property Analysis

Query specific mass and radius values for a list of confirmed planets.

04

Discovery Trend Tracking

Analyze how the frequency of planet discoveries has changed over the last three decades.

Automate a task

Put NASA to work on one thing.

Step-by-step automations your AI runs through this Connector: the workflow, the prompts to start with, and the exact capabilities behind each move.

One connector, every AI

NASA works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put NASA to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

Connect your client

One URL. Every client.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 4 capabilities arrive ready to run.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of NASA, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with NASA. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

Who it's for

Built for the work NASA owners hand off.

This MCP is built for researchers and enthusiasts who need to interact with NASA's planetary data through an AI interface.

  • 01

    Astrophysicists

    They use the capability to quickly pull physical parameters for specific planet sets.

  • 02

    Data Scientists

    They use it to extract discovery trends and statistical distributions.

  • 03

    Science Communicators

    They use it to find specific facts and figures for educational content.

FAQ

Questions NASA owners ask.

  • 01

    Do I need an API key for NASA data?

    No. The Exoplanet Archive TAP service is open, and Vinkius manages the connection so you don't need to handle keys.

  • 02

    Which AI clients can use this MCP?

    Any MCP-compatible client, including Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code.

  • 03

    How many planets are in the database?

    The archive contains over 5,700 confirmed exoplanets.

  • 04

    Can I search for planets by their discovery method?

    Yes. You can filter by Transit, Radial Velocity, Imaging, or Microlensing.

  • 05

    What kind of physical data can I get?

    You can retrieve orbital period, radius, mass, and equilibrium temperature.

  • 06

    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).
