NRC Starting New Study Reviewing NASA's Technology Roadmaps

NASA’s Chief Technologist, Bobby Braun, has asked the National Research Council’s (NRC’s) Aeronautics and Space Engineering Board (ASEB) to review his office’s 14 draft technology roadmaps that were developed to support NASA’s mission directorates and national and commercial needs in space technology. The first meeting of the NRC study committee taking on that task will be held next week at the Georgetown Hotel and Conference Center in Washington, DC.

The study will involve a steering committee and up to seven panels. This first meeting will span four days and is open to the public on the mornings of January 26 and January 28. Visit the study committee’s website for more details. The statement of task and a list of the members of the steering committee are available on the NRC’s Current Projects System.
