The project scientist is Thomas E. Moore of Goddard Space Flight Center. [13] Education and public outreach is a key aspect of the mission, with student activities, data sonification, and planetarium shows being developed. The mission was selected for support by NASA in 2005.
The NCCDS issues Network Advisory Messages (NAMs) to provide up-to-date information on network conditions and constraints. These messages are accessible via the NCCDS active NAM web site. The Goddard Space Flight Center uses the NAMs as a means of letting customers know of any performance constraints associated with the TDRS spacecraft.
