List of Questions Sent to NASA Centers

  • Status of institutional support infrastructure (high pressure air, electrical power, steam, etc.) for the laboratories and facilities.

  • Status of test instrumentation (data acquisition, data reduction, measurement instruments, calibration support, etc.) support in the laboratories.

  • Laboratory support staffing—adequacy, future outlook, etc.

  • Center perspective of Headquarters’ support of TRL 1-3 research. Is there a concerted effort to support that type of research or is the TRL 1-3 work primarily supporting a specific mission?

  • How is TRL 1-3 research performance evaluated?

  • How are TRL 1-3 research and equipment upgrades funded at the center?
