Session 2

In this session, we will cover the foundation of your proposals this semester. The NASA Technology Taxonomy is a comprehensive classification system that categorizes the diverse range of technologies developed and utilized by NASA. It serves as a valuable resource for organizing and documenting the agency's vast technological capabilities. The taxonomy provides a standardized framework to classify technologies based on their applications, functions, and associated disciplines.
This document serves as a powerful tool for assessing technology gaps and identifying areas for innovation. It facilitates targeted research and development initiatives, allowing NASA to focus its resources on filling gaps, advancing existing technologies, and fostering innovation in pursuit of its space exploration and scientific objectives. Get ready to dive head first into the world of NASA tech and learn how to identify areas of innovation.
