NASA's Additive Manufacturing Development Materials Science to Technology Infusion - Connecting the Digital Dots

At NASA, the first steps of the Journey to Mars are well underway with the development of NASA's next generation launch system and investments in research and technologies that should increase the affordability, capability, and safety of exploration activities. Additive Manufacturing presents a disruptive opportunity for NASA to design and manufacture hardware with new materials at dramatically reduced cost and schedule. Opportunities to incorporate additive manufacturing align very well with NASA missions and with most NASA programs related to space, science, and aeronautics. The Agency also relies on many partnerships with other government agencies, industry and academia.

Cognitive Communications and Networking Technology Infusion Study Report

As the envisioned next-generation SCaN Network transitions into an end-to-end “system of systems” with new enabling capabilities, it is anticipated that the introduction of machine learning, artificial intelligence, and other cognitive strategies into the network infrastructure will result in increased mission science return, improved resource efficiencies, and increased autonomy and reliability. This enhanced set of cognitive capabilities will be implemented via a “space cloud” concept to achieve a service-oriented architecture with distributed cognition, de-centralized routing, and shared, on-orbit data processing. The enabling cognitive communications and networking capabilities that may facilitate the desired network enhancements are identified in this document, and the associated enablers of these capabilities, such as technologies and standards, are described in detail.

Conceive, Believe and Achieve; A Path to Miniaturization, COTS Infusion, and Size Weight and Power Realization for Flight

JPL along with other aerospace agencies such as the US Air Force Space Pro-grams and a packaging technology innovator, i3 Electronics, Inc., are evaluating the use of state-of-the-art (SOA) commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) and alternative packaging technologies for future high performance and high reliability space applications. Utilization of SOA COTS technologies have resulted in large scale reduction in electronics volume, weight, power, cost and schedule with outstanding electrical performance and high reliability. We will share JPL’s joint design, architectural approach, alternative substrate materials selection, associated processes, and mission assurance role in identifying reliability and qualification risks, as part of the three year Heterogeneous Packaging/Device Integration effort under the guidance and leadership of JPL’s Mission Assurance Directorate.

Dust Solution Testing Initiative (DuSTI): Infusing Commercial Off the Shelf Dust Mitigation Technologies with NASA Practices

Dust is one of the most significant hazards to human lunar exploration. However, since the Apollo program concluded, limited research has been performed on lunar dust mitigation technologies. The safety of the crew members and sustainability of habitats, science, and supporting hardware depend on effective dust mitigation techniques and technologies. As NASA pursues a new generation of lunar missions with the Artemis program, the project team will pursue dust mitigation solutions with the Dust Solution Testing Initiative (DuSTI). DuSTI is a lunar dust mitigation effort that involves performing tests on commercial off the shelf (COTS) technologies over FY21. DuSTI will preform component and subsystem tests in dusty environments for up to five technologies with high potential. The specific technologies identified for study were selected based on several factors, including a market analysis of current terrestrial dust mitigation applications, availability of the technology, accessibility of various testing facilities, and cost of procurement. These technologies support the active and passive dust mitigation requirements of filtration systems, electro-mechanical systems, electro-static systems, surface coatings, textiles, and silicone polymers. Technology Readiness Level (TRL) will be increased by validating components in relevant environments. For example, if the COTS technology is at a TRL 9 for terrestrial use but at a 4-5 TRL for use in the lunar environment, we will test that technology in a lunar dust environment to increase the TRL for use on the Moon.

Non-Targeted Direct Infusion Soluble Organic Analysis on a Tarda Meteorite Extract

The differences in chemistry, mineralogy, and structure of chondrites demonstrate thevariations in time/space of their forming regions in the solar nebula. In contrast, the variationof the organic reserves in the solar nebula is unclear. Furthermore, their subsequent evolutionof organic matter on the parent body is still under debate. In a previous study on Tagish Lake(C2 ungrouped) we showed that the primordial soluble organic matter (SOM) could bedistinguished from the parent body's secondary alteration threw mass distribution. This studywill show the Tarda meteorite SOM primordial distribution, using the model from ourprevious study. We discuss its organic reservoirs and secondary alteration effects. We alsocompare the character of the SOM with previously analysed Orgueil (CI). Sample and method: Tarda (fall, 2020) was classified as a C2 ungroup carbonaceouschondrite. Its bulk three oxygen isotope composition is distinct from other chondrite groupsbut similar to CI-chondrite-like and Yamato-type-like [1] values. We analysed themethanol/toluene extract using the high-resolution Orbitrap mass spectrometer at the Institutede Planétologie et d’Astrophysique Grenoble (IPAG) by directly injecting and ionizing theSOM and the solvent using the Heated Electrospray Ionization (HESI) source. After thespectra acquisition, the in-house developed post-processing data analysis tools, Attributor [2],was used. Preliminary Result: The SOM mass distribution of Tarda was well-fitted by the modelinterpreted as the primordial SOM distribution in Tagish lake. This common distributionpattern implies the presence of a common organic reservoir or SOM formation mechanism.Orgueil’s mass spectrum showed a more complex mass-distribution and seemed to be affectedby secondary processes. In contrast to the mass-distribution, SOM’s elemental abundance wasdistinct. The Tarda extract was enriched in S-bearing organic compounds which was incontrast to the Tagish Lake extract consisting of mostly CHNO elements. The presentationwill also discuss the application of our technique to Ryugu or Bennu samples. [1] Meteoriticalbulletin database [2] Orthous-Daunay, F. R. et al.
