The Consortium for Execution of Rendezvous and Servicing Operations (CONFERS) is a program started by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) in 2017. [1] The goal was to address the lack of widely accepted technical and safety standards for on-orbit servicing activities involving commercial satellites. [ 2 ]
DARPA Chikungunya (CHIKV) Challenge (2014-2015) was a health-related effort to develop the most accurate predictions of CHIKV cases for all Western Hemisphere countries and territories between September 2014 and March 2015. On May 12, 2015, DARPA awarded $500,000 in prizes to the 11 winners of the competition during a scientific review [20] [21]
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA, formerly ARPA) has been the military's in-house innovator since 1958, a year after the USSR launched Sputnik.DARPA is widely known for creating ARPAnet, the predecessor of the internet, and has been instrumental in advancing hardened electronics, brain-computer interface technology, drones, and stealth technology.
[5] [13] [14] In mid-November, DARPA stated that the first test flight ended when the computer autopilot "commanded flight termination" after the vehicle began to roll violently. [15] A second flight was initially scheduled to be launched on August 10, 2011, but bad weather forced a delay. [16] The flight was launched the following day, on 11 ...
To help overcome these challenges, DARPA launched in 2014 [6] the Cyber Grand Challenge: a two-year competition seeking to create automatic defensive systems capable of reasoning about flaws, formulating patches and deploying them on a network in real time. The competition was split into two main events: an open qualification event to be held ...
NASA has been working on a detailed architecture for lunar and Martian exploration. [12] DARPA has coordinated with NASA to make LunA-10 complementary to NASA architecture studies. [13] An update on the program occurred in April 2024. With industry participants providing insight on how a lunar economy could be operationalized.
DARPA conducted the first demonstration of the whole PCAS system with the U.S. Marine Corps on 27 March 2015 during the Talon Reach training exercise. The exercise was the first time the air component was integrated with the ground component in use operationally since 2013, dubbed Kinetic Integrated Low-cost SoftWare Integrated Tactical Combat ...
