SET Science Approach

  • Define investigation topics through community workshops
    • NASA, industry, universities, other government agencies
    • Technology users and technology providers
  • Acquire investigations through NASA Research Announcements (NRAs) and partnerships
    • Flight investigations
      • Collect data in space to validate the performance of new technology vulnerable to the effects of the solar varying environments and instruments for LWS science missions
      • Collect data in space to validate new and existing ground test protocols or mechanism models for the effects of solar variability on emerging technologies and components
    • Data investigations
      • Improve, develop, and validate engineering environment models, tools, and databases for reliable spacecraft design and operation
  • Transition results of investigations (products) to user community
    • Community workshops for investigators and users
    • Presentations at conferences
    • Data and product distribution and archive
