Description <\/p>\n
NASA announces the upcoming Common Instrument Interface (CII) Guidelines Working Meeting, scheduled for December 13, 2012, from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. at the James E. Webb Auditorium at NASA Headquarters, 300 E Street, SW, Washington, DC. <\/p>\n
The purpose of the Working Meeting is to discuss technical aspects of hosting NASA science instruments and technology demonstration payloads on civil and commercial spacecraft. The principal organizations participating in the Working Meeting are the Earth Science Division (ESD) of the NASA Science Mission Directorate (SMD) and the Technology Demonstration Missions (TDM) Program of NASA Space Technology Program Directorate. <\/p>\n
ESD's flight portfolio includes the Earth System Science Pathfinder Program (ESSP), which comprises a series of relatively low-to-moderate cost; small-to-medium sized; competitively selected; Principal Investigator-led missions that are built, tested, and launched in a short time interval that accommodate new and emergent scientific priorities. The Earth Venture Instrument (EVI) line of missions is ESSP's hosted payload component. The Common Instrument Interface (CII) Project supports ESSP by identifying a common set of technical guidelines for Earth Science instruments that will improve their success of becoming hosted payloads. <\/p>\n
The TDM Program bridges the gap between proof of concept and experimental testing stage and the final infusion of the technologies into NASA missions, providing needed flight demonstration in relevant environments to mature laboratory-proven technologies to flight-ready status. It focuses on technologies with strong customer interest that meet the needs of NASA and industry by enabling new missions or greatly enhancing existing missions. TDM is currently developing two hosted payload missions: the Deep Space Atomic Clock (DSAC) and the Laser Communications Relay Demonstration (LCRD). <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
