Technology Spec Sheets

Listed below are technologies that NASA is seeking to advance to support the Artemis Mission. Projects proposed to NASA Minority University Research and Education Project (MUREP) Innovative New Designs for Space (INDS) (NASA MINDS) are NOT limited to these technologies. The spec sheets are simply examples of potential technologies and the specifications associated with them.

Please also note that many of the specifications listed represent NASA’s ultimate goals for the technology. It is not necessary for projects to achieve these specifications. Progress towards these specifications, combined with a significant student learning experience, achieve the objectives of NASA MINDS.
