Deep Space One: NASA's First Deep-Space Technology Validation Mission
Under development for launch in July 1998, Deep Space One (DS1) is the first flight of NASA's New Millennium Program, Chartered to validate selected technologies required for future low-cost space science programs. Advanced technologies chosen for validation on DS1 include solar electric propulsion, high-power solar concentrator arrays, autonomous on-board optical navigation, two low-mass science instrument packages, and several telecommunications and microelectronics devices.

Plasma for the Space Environment: An Overview of the Research at NASA's Kennedy Space Center
Human life amongst other planets requires vast technological advancements to sustain nutritional, environmental, and logistical needs. Plasma systems allow for advanced chemical processing while mitigating consumable needs or reliance on industrial infrastructure. Scientists at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center are attempting to close technology gaps with research into plasmas and their applications. Some such work includes the use of plasma for waste gasification, water activation, nutrient recovery techniques, lunar regolith reduction for oxygen extraction, and space crop production support. Here we report on the needs, success criteria, and results of plasma efforts for crewed transit and planetary habitation.

Plants in Space and Space Crop Production
As astronauts venture farther from Earth, and for longer periods, the space food system will increase in importance. Crop production can supplement a packaged diet to provide additional nutrients and dietary variety for astronauts. Several unique challenges exist for growth of plants in microgravity and on other planetary surfaces. Testing with the Veggie and Advanced Plant Habitat chambers on the International Space Station is allowing us to understand the impacts of gravity and spaceflight on crop growth, nutritional content, and food acceptability, and the importance of plants to astronauts living and working away from our blue home planet.

Space and planetary environment criteria guidelines for use in space vehicle development, 1971 revision
A consolidation of natural environment data is presented for use as design criteria guidelines in space and planetary exploration vehicle development programs. In addition to information in the disciplinary areas of aeronomy, radiation, geomagnetism, astrodynamic constants, and meteoroids for the earth's environment above 90 kilometers, interplanetary space, and the planetary environments, the upper atmosphere model currently recommended for use at MSFC is discussed in detail.
