In the multi-domain battlefield, personnel rely on a geographically dispersed, connected network of sensors, platforms, and weapon systems to execute their missions in harsh and contested environments. Mission planning must accurately incorporate the evaluation of network performance and cyber resilience in a holistic survivability context based on realistic tactical environments. The network digital twin concept has become a viable solution t...

As NASA continues to innovate in the space exploration, scientific, and research industries, small businesses will be critical to its success. Each entity plays a unique role in cultivating the vendors needed to ensure success. Join us for an interactive webinar on the various opportunities available for underrepresented communities. Attendees can also expect to unpack the barriers, to entry, that underserved communities face when participatin...

Innovators at the NASA Glenn Research Center have developed a new oxide dispersion strengthened medium entropy alloy (ODS-MEA) using additive manufacturing (AM). ODS alloys, in which nano-scale ceramic particles are distributed within the metal, were originally developed to enhance mechanical properties (e.g., creep resistance, tensile strength, microstructure integrity) at extreme temperatures. Thus, such alloys show promise for metal compone...

Innovators at NASA's Glenn Research Center have developed a rapid processing method that produces stronger, tailored silicon carbide (SiC) tows and even heals damaged or otherwise low-quality fibers. Never before could poor-quality SiC fibers be healed and improved by this magnitude. This simple microwave process enables SiC tows and parts made from SiC fibers to be integrated into previously impossible applications while significantly saving...

This webinar will showcase solutions on how Digital Thread allows for data and processes to flow across the enterprise, free from functional silos, enabling an organization to make decisions quickly and move faster.

In 1965, Gene Roddenberry and the cast of Star Trek introduced a fascination with space exploration into American popular culture, a phenomenon that still persists over half a century later. Leading us into that exciting future was Mr.William Shatner as Captain Kirk. In this Red Hat® Coffee Hour session, Mr. Shatner will join Red Hatter Adam Clater to talk about Star Trek and its influence on technology, space travel, and sustainability. I...

As NASA continues to innovate in the space exploration, scientific, and research industries, small businesses will be critical to its success. Join us for an update from NASA’s Small Business Innovation Research Program (SBIR) and the Small Business Technology Transfer Program (STTR). The mission of the SBIR/STTR programs is to support scientific excellence and technological innovation through the investment of Federal research funds in...

The United States and Africa have long been active trade partners, but until recently, that relationship only involved limited ties on space cooperation. Now a new generation of Africans is leading the charge to help the continent become an innovative, globally relevant space power. Both challenges and opportunities now exist, that if addressed, will help strengthen the space cooperation ties between the U.S. and Africa. According to Space in...

Parties of Concern: What You Need to Know In this webinar, we will look at U.S. export restrictions for particular end uses and end users, with a focus on recent developments. We will include a discussion of the Entity List, recent expansions and complexities, and the Military End Users list as well. The speaker will review the policy bases for these lists, the need for due diligence to extend beyond these lists, the restrictions they impose o...
