The NOvA experiment has been collecting data in the NuMI neutrino beam since 2014. In this article we describe the rich physics program of the experiment, including long-baseline oscillation measurements, neutrino cross-section measurements, searches for phenomena beyond the standard three flavor oscillation paradigm, as well as astro-physical searches. Only half way through its expected run plan, NOvA will continue to explore exciting physics topics through 2026 and beyond.
