Advancing Open Science through Public-Private Partnerships

Rapid technology developments are changing the way data-driven research is performed within the science community. With the emergence of cloud computing, this has quickly become a viable approach for enabling “science at scale”. Researchers are no longer hindered by obstacles of data management and data wrangling, allowing them to quickly discover, access and perform analysis on extremely large datasets. Infrastructures that move data out of institutional silos and into a computational platform, will ensure that data and tools are accessible to all users. NASA’s Interagency Implementation and Advanced Concepts Team (IMPACT) seeks to address these rapid technology developments by establishing Space Act Agreements with selected partners from the public-private sector working in the area of cloud computing. These agreements aim to explore new opportunities with commercial cloud providers to accelerate open science and enable discovery, access and use of data sets on the cloud. In addition, they will also help establish training workshops for the science community to help researchers utilize the cloud for science. In this talk, we will present an overview of current and new partnerships we are developing to support open science and open data initiatives.

Google and NASA Air Quality Partnership – A Collaboration Using GEOS-CF Data and Google Earth Engine

NASA and Google have expanded their partnership to create data and tools that help with pollution mitigation and decision making on a local government scale. The goal is to use the technologies available at NASA and Google to create city-scale data estimates and forecasts of air pollutants such as NO2 derived from the GEOS Composition Forecast (GEOS-CF) model. Efforts are also being led by Pawan Gupta to create a downscaled MERRA-2 PM2.5 product.

Model-Based Systems Analysis and Engineering for the Sustainable Flight National Partnership

NASA is committed to supporting the U.S. climate goal of achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions from the aviation sector by 2050, as outlined in the U.S. 2021 Aviation Climate Action Plan. Through the Sustainable Flight National Partnership (SFNP), NASA is leading federal agencies and industry partners to accelerate the development of technologies capable of supporting the nation's aviation sustainability goals for products targeting an entry-into-service of 2035. To support the SFNP, NASA is developing a Model-Based Systems Analysis & Engineering (MBSA&E) framework which will serve to digitally integrate the work across numerous projects and demonstrations to the systems-level for relevant vision vehicle concepts. This presentation summarizes the MBSA&E motivation, development efforts, and future work.

NASA Sustainable Flight National Partnership Panel

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Aeronautics Mission Directorate (ARMD) Hybrid Thermally Efficient Core (HyTEC) Project within the Advanced Air Vehicles Program (AAVP) is focused on accelerating the development of small-core turbofan engine technologies to advance the next entry into service (EIS) single-aisle aircraft having 25,000-35,000 lb. thrust class engines. The goal is to accelerate the development of key engine technologies with improvements in efficiency, durability, performance, and hybridization in order to meet the next EIS single-aisle aircraft expected in the 2030s. The HyTEC Project technology portfolio includes High Pressure Compressor, High Pressure Turbine, Advanced Materials, Hybrid Electric and Compact Combustor (includes operation with Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF)). The individual technologies were industry partner proposed and defined where HyTEC selected technologies to cost share with the industry partner. The first phase of the project has matured some and continues to mature numerous technologies to a Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 4-5, which will then be integrated into an advanced small core demonstration. The results of completed efforts have been successful, and projections toward project performance metrics of all Phase 1 technologies indicates significant progress toward meeting the requirements. The core demonstration will integrate many of these technologies into a large-scale ground demonstration that will take them to TRL 6 and enable industry to transition the technologies into the next single-aisle engine architecture. The demonstration goal is to meet the project performance metrics that signify a compact engine core with substantial efficiency and durability improvements over a year 2020 baseline. The core demonstration has been awarded with a cost-share partnership and will take place by the end of 2028.

The NASA-Rio de Janeiro Partnership

In Dec. 2015, NASA and the city of Rio de Janeiro signed an agreement to support innovative efforts to better understand, anticipate, and monitor hazards, including heavy rainfall, sea level rise, and landslides in and around the city. This collaboration will leverage the unique attributes of NASA's satellite data and Rio de Janeiro's management and monitoring capabilities to improve awareness of how the city of Rio may be inpacted by hazards and affected by climate change.

The Partnership: a History of the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project

Correspondance, interviews, official documents, and other published materials were used to trace the evolution of the Apollo Soyuz Test Project from the initial proposal for international cooperation in space use and exploration until the successful completion of the joint Soviet-American mission. Conceptual drawings of proposed docking modules and mechanisms are presented and dicussed. Black and white photographs taken during mission planning and in-flight activities are included with color photographs of the earth taken during the mission. Joint meetings are summarized and the scientific experiments and launch vehicles are discussed in the appendices.

NASA partnership with industry: Enhancing technology transfer

Recognizing the need to accelerate and expand the application of NASA-derived technology for other civil uses in the United States, potential opportunities were assessed; the range of benefits to NASA, industry and the nations were explored; public policy implications were assessed; and this new range of opportunities were related to current technology transfer programs of NASA.

The partnership: Space shuttle, space science, and space station

An overview of the NASA Space Station Program functions, design, and planned implementation is presented. The discussed functions for the permanently manned space facility include: (1) development of new technologies and related commercial products; (2) observations of the Earth and the universe; (3) provision of service facilities for resupply, maintenance, upgrade and repair of payloads and spacecraft; (4) provision of a transportation node for stationing, processing and dispatching payloads and vehicles; (5) provision of manufacturing and assembly facilities; (6) provision of a storage depot for parts and payloads; and (7) provision of a staging base for future space endeavors. The fundamental concept for the Space Station, as given, is that it be designed, operated, and evolved in response to a broad variety of scientific, technological, and commercial user interests. The Space Shuttle's role as the principal transportation system for the construction and maintenance of the Space Station and the servicing and support of the station crew is also discussed.
