First Impressions of Data Driven Printmaking: Preliminary Outcomes of an Art and Science Collaboration

Katie Baldwin (University of Alabama Huntsville) and Helen Parache (NASA Marshall Space Flight Center) collaborated on a pilot project with two upper division printmaking classes at the UAH Art Department in Spring 2023. Presentations and guided discussions focused on what artists and scientists can learn from each other, drawing from the larger discourse, and an introduction to artists that incorporate scientific data in their work. Parache and Baldwin facilitated a series of activities where students engaged with data to develop content. Each session ended with creating a plan with each student for a data-driven project utilizing printmaking which was shared in a talk open to the public. This pilot collaboration brought up themes of accessibility, social relevance, emotional truth, and creative solutions. Next steps include repeating the workshop with tweaks in Fall 2023 and strengthening relationships between artists and scientists co-located in Huntsville, Alabama.

The Road to Endurance: Outcomes From the Endurance Science Workshop

Endurance is a mission concept for a long-range, highly autonomous lunar rover (Fig. 1) designed to explore the farside of the Moon and the largest and oldest (undisputed) impact crater in the Solar System: South Pole–Aitken basin (SPA) (Fig. 2). Endurance would traverse nearly 2,000 kilometers, acquiring a large volume of in situ data, and a large mass of samples (up to 100 kg of material from 12 sites), before rendezvousing with Artemis astronauts at the south pole of the Moon. The Endurance concept was developed during the recent Origins, Worlds, and Life Planetary Science and Astrobiology Decadal Survey [1–2], which recommended Endurance as the highest priority new strategic mission for NASA’s Lunar Discovery and Exploration Program. Since the release of the Decadal Survey in 2022, NASA has been further studying this concept, and investigating the range of implementation options [3–5].

Comparison of Artemis 2 and Artemis 5 Model Outcomes Using the Impact Probabilistic Risk Assessment Tool

BACKGROUND The Artemis campaign is a Moon exploration program with a series of six planned missions, five of which will be crewed. These five crewed missions will contain a single mission segment (space flight), or multiple mission segments involving space flight (Orion), lunar landing (LTV) and/or space habitat (Gateway). Each crewed segment faces the risk of unique medical conditions, necessitating medical sets/kits tailored to those specificities. To support and enable a data-driven and evidence-based decision-making process through out a mission’s life cycle, a software tool called IMPACT was developed. Using probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) methodologies, IMPACT (Informing Mission Planning via Analysis of Complex Tradespaces) is a novel tool built for analyzing the possibility of encountering complex medical risks during space flight, and for identifying the medical resources and capabilities needed to treat those potential at-risk medical conditions. This presentation will seek to compare IMPACT’s computational results upon potential complex space medical conditions (e.g., sprain/strain back or sleep disturbance) using IMPACT’s risk metrics and the associated optimized medical sets/kits between two Artemis missions: single segment Artemis 2 and multi-segmented Artemis 5. OVERVIEW By identifying potential medical conditions in space using input criteria such as crew quantity and composition, certain crew physical characteristics, mission duration and mission activities, IMPACT can produce analyses on the type of medical resources and capabilities needed to produce an optimized medical set/kit to address those medical conditions. IMPACT achieves this by performing hundreds of thousands of Monte Carlo simulations of missions to build aggregate pictures of medical risk. IMPACT’s risk metrics include loss of crew life (LOCL) – a measure of crew mortality due to medical conditions in space, return to definitive care (RTDC) – the need to perform crew evacuation, and task time lost (TTL) – a measure of the inability to perform activities due to crew disability. These risk metrics are applied to every medical condition identified by IMPACT’s computation analyses for every segment of the mission. Medical sets/kits are optimized to address these medical conditions but must fit within the stated Artemis Design Reference Mission (DRM) request for mass and volume physical size constraints. ANTICIPATED ANALYSIS AND CONCLUSION Using two Artemis missions, Artemis 2 and Artemis 5, IMPACT will provide the analyses for comparison of medical set/kit contents based upon mass and/or volume requirements and identify the at-risk medical conditions within both missions. This paper serves as an initial exploration of probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) medical risk calculations between two crewed Artemis missions and is not intended to be deemed the official medical response for the Artemis campaign.

Work In Progress: Using Internships as Means for Indirect Assessment of ABET Criteria 3 "1-7" Student Outcomes

PSU operates the Power Engineering Internship program with funding from two U.S. Department of Energy grants. The program is operated in partnership with the lead organizations of these grants, an investor-owned utility, Portland General Electric (PGE), and the Confederated Tribes of the Warm Springs (CTWS). One of the programmatic goals of the PEI is to create and sustain a clean energy engineering workforce pipeline on behalf of these lead organizations. Both grants support internships at PGE, which is also a partner on the CTWS grant. The PEI provides engineering students with year-long internships, spanning both the academic year and the summer. The interns work at PGE facilities located throughout the Portland metropolitan area. Interns are employed full-time during summers and part-time during the academic year. Proximity of the worksites to the PSU campus enables the interns to participate in the program while attending school full-time. During the academic year, students average fifteen hours per week, adjusting their work schedule according to their academic workload. The interns are allocated 930 hours per year, 480 in the summer and 450 during the academic year, which they can plan as they see fit. The internships provide meaningful financial support for the students, who can earn up to $21k if they use all of their allocated hours. Such funding is particularly important for the typical student who attends a minority serving institutions,
