Not Sure What a "Decadal Survey" Is? Get an Explanation and Links to the Three Ongoing NRC Studies at SpacePolicyOnline.com

Decadal Surveys are signature products of the National Research Council because they set consensus-based priorities in various fields of research. Our “National Research Council” section (on our left menu) has been updated to explain what Decadal Surveys are and to provide links to the four existing Decadal Surveys that guide space and earth science research at NASA, and to the three Decadal Survey studies that are currently underway — astronomy and astrophysics, planetary science, and biological and physical research in space. We also provide links to other classic NRC reports broadly or specifically related to space activities that are often cited.
