MIRCE Bench Sources: NASA Public Domain Video Clips for Benchmarking

NASA public-domain source videos for the MIRCE benchmark, including documentary, Apollo mission, and Earth-from-space clips. The subset contains approximately 11 GB of video files. This dataset is paired with Lando0/mirce-meta for candidate-pool indexes.

Use Cases

• Benchmarking video retrieval systems based on NASA documentary content.
• Training multimodal models on public-domain space exploration footage.
• Creating educational or reference datasets from Apollo mission clips.
• Developing content-based video search algorithms using Earth-from-space imagery.

Strengths

• Approximately 11 GB of video data from a clearly defined source (NASA).
• Explicitly paired with a separate metadata dataset (Lando0/mirce-meta) for structured use.
• Uses content from the public domain, which likely simplifies licensing for reuse.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and specific file formats are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The description notes intentional exclusion of other video sources (e.g., Pexels), limiting scope.
