This document serves as the fiscal year end report for the NEPP scaled complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) task. Much of the effort this year focused on development of test capability and initial collection of data on SDRAM devices. Since the system has only just begun (in the last four weeks) to gather data, this report focuses on the test system and preliminary results.

This report presents a summary of the Corrective Measures Implementation (CMI) and Interim Measure (IM) implementation activities that occurred from January 2021 through December 2021 at the Mobile Launch Platform Rehabilitation Sites (MLP)/Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) Area, Solid Waste Management Unit 056 (SWMU 056), located at the John F. Kennedy Space Center, Florida. The following summaries briefly describe areas within SWMU 056 identified by historical site investigation activities where groundwater monitoring and remedial actions have been implemented to date.
This document serves as an annual report of m:N Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) subgroup activities, addressed challenges, and roadmaps for the future. The subgroups consist of small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (sUAS), Large UAS, High Altitude Platform Systems (HAPS), and Urban Air Mobility (UAM). Also included in this report are participant lists for each subgroup (Appendix B) and future roadmap and outreach plans.The subgroups meet in a virtual format multiple times throughout the year. Twice a year, participants from all the subgroups come together as part of the m:N working group to brief each other in person on progress, challenges, and path forward ideas for successful incorporation of UAS into the airspace. Recent m:N in person meetings include: - November 29-30, 2022 at the NASA Ames Research Center in Mountain View, CA - May 9 & 11, 2023 at AUVSI’s Xponential conference in Denver, CO - The next in person working group meeting is planned for November 28-30, 2023 at NASA Langley in Hampton, Virginia The m:N UAS working group is run by Jay Shively (Adaptive Aerospace) and Andy Thurling (Thurling Aero Consulting) and is comprised of members from government, industry, and academia in an effort to identify and reduce barriers to m:N operations. This effort also includes identifying requirements, use cases, and metrics to support organizations and groups including the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and Radio Technical Commission for Aeronautics (RTCA’s) SC-228 Detect and Avoid committee.
We report progress on the ongoing recalibration of the Wolf sunspot number (S N ) and group-sunspot number (G N ) following the release of version 2.0 of S N in 2015. This report constitutes both an update of the efforts reported in the 2016 Topical Issue of Solar Physics and a summary of work by the International Space Science Institute (ISSI) International Team formed in 2017 to develop optimal S N and G N reconstruction methods while continuing to expand the historical sunspot-number database. Significant progress has been made on the database side while more work is needed to bring the various proposed S N and (primarily) G N reconstruction methods closer to maturity, after which the new reconstructions (or combinations thereof) can be compared with (a) “benchmark” expectations for any normalization scheme (e.g., a general increase in observer normalization factors going back in time), and (b) independent proxy data series such as F10.7 and the daily range of variations of Earth’s undisturbed magnetic field. New versions of the underlying databases for S N and G N will shortly become available for years through 2022 and we anticipate the release of the next versions of these two time series in 2024.
This report presents a summary of the Corrective Measures Implementation (CMI) and Interim Measure (IM) implementation activities that occurred from January 2022 through April 2023 at the Mobile Launch Platform Rehabilitation Sites (MLP)/Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) Area, Solid Waste Management Unit 056 (SWMU 056), located at the John F. Kennedy Space Center, Florida. The following summaries briefly describe areas within SWMU 056 identified by historical site investigation activities where groundwater monitoring and remedial actions have been implemented to date.
