Technologies that result in system-level changes in future space system design and implementation.
Disruptive Technologies
Advanced manufacturing, design, and materials use new methodologies to design, analyze, and fabricate individual parts to entire systems.
Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML) enable tasks that otherwise require human intelligence and human intervention.
Autonomous systems enable spacecraft to make decisions and take actions without human intervention.
Data science enables the generation, fusion, and analysis of big data sets.
A distributed system is a connected and coordinated group of assets, including satellites, telescopes, antennas, and vehicles.
Miniaturized systems are fully integrated space systems with reduced weight, size, volume, and power consumption.
